Boost / Non boost


Super Sywurm

Recommended Posts

I have a American Classic wheel set (non boost).  I want to remove the hubs and fit boost hubs.  The non boost hubs is also American Classic.

 

Would it not be better to just replace the whole wheelset? 

 

Get some of the wheel builders that have already replied to this post to give you some quotes?

I could replace the wheels, but I just got them like 6 months ago and I paid a pretty penny for them.  I don't want to replace them now.

a quick google shows that you might be able to convert your current hubs and have the wheels re-dished

not sure where you'd get the kits though

I am not fond of these conversions, would rather fit boost hubs if I can.
