Gorbachza Posted July 23, 2010 Share I am in the process of upgrading my MTB, and the next part I am buying is a new front shock. I would like to know if a 15mm through axle will work with my standard hubs or do I need to upgrade/change it. I know the standard skewer is like 5mm so obviously something would have to change. Any advise would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splat Posted July 23, 2010 Share What is your current hub? XT/XTR has a specific QR15 hub, while Chris King, Hope and I9 (among others) are convertable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorbachza Posted July 23, 2010 Share oh goodness no... I don't know what make it is but it is not XT/XTR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brussel Posted July 23, 2010 Share some hubs can be modified - many of the sealed bearing units are pretty well modifiable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorbachza Posted July 23, 2010 Share well I replaced my cassette last night and saw that it does not have sealed bearings. I see new Hubs in my future... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
