Hi,

I have the 10mm bolt-up version of the Hope Pro II rear hub. Excellent hub, but now I want to run a Saint rear mech. I've tried to peer through the open axle of my hub, and it seems to taper so I probably can't just fit the Hope Saint through-axle.

Do I need to change axles to the 10mm / 135mm bolt through axle?

...or can I just fit the Hope Saint axle bolt

to my 10mm bolt-up hub without any further hassle?

Thank you,
-KT
