142 To 142+ Hub adapter kit?

Recommended Posts

Recently got a new spez camber that requires 142+ Hubs

 

Wanting to build another set of wheels and wanted to use a set of Hope 142 hubs.

 

Anybody know of any adapter kits available to run 142 hubs as 142+?

 

I can only find old info on uncle Google about his

 

Thanks

As far as I know only Specialized supply 142+ hubs.  You can run a standard 142 hub on a Specialized frame but not a 142+ hub on another make of frame.  All they have done on the 142+ is move the right flange and cassette 2 mm to the right.  The axle remains the same so there is no way to "adapt" a 142 to a 142+.

 

If you use a 142 hub on a Specialized frame your chain line will not be optimal.

The Hope hub will fit in the frame. The 142+ donates to the size of the actual hub shell, not the spacing between the stays.
