I'm after upgrading my wheelset [at some point] on my commencal.
Unfortunately the commencal website says the rear hub is
So do i need a specific rear hub for some new wheels?
I was thinking about halo spindoctor hubs, and found this.
Can anyone explain what i need, :? it'd be much apreciated.
Cheers

135x10mm will fit standard dropouts.
What are you looking at replacing your wheels with?0 -
The commie has 10mm horzontal dropouts, so i take it 9mm QR wont fit, i'm kinda confused.
I'm thinking of Spindoctor hubs, but i haven't decided on rims yet, maybe freedoms or SAS's. But i'm open to suggestions.What We Achieve In Life, Echoes In Eternity0 -
It has the same dropouts as my Mongoose.
I have 10mm bolt axles, not QR which are stiffer anyway..
Halo, DMR have some nice wheels on CRC with 10mm dropouts
I would go for a 10mm specific 24" wheel - cheap as chips as I found out.
When funds allow, I am getting these for my playbike.

With a matching 24" QR SAS wheel for front - under £200 the set0 -
i have a 10mm bolt thru on my surge that fits the standard dropouts.
Won't a "normal" hub fit? or am i not understanding what your on about? lol.0 -
He means 135mm spacing with a standard 9mm QR0

I wouldn't personally use 9mm quick release on a jump/park bike with horizontal dropouts, that's not to say it can't be done, I just wouldn't trust it.0

Sorry if the question was a bit vague guys.
Basically, i have horizontal dropoutsa and they will only accept a 10mm by 135mm hub.
The spindoctor hubs i'm looking at come in "standard QR" which i thought was 9mm by 350mm.
My question was, is it possible to convert the spindoctors [there's a link to a kit in the opening post] or do i need a specific 10mm by 135mm hub.
Sorry for the confusion.What We Achieve In Life, Echoes In Eternity0 -
I think they are convertible - check out their website...
Or just go for a different wheel that doesn't require faffing around with...
Why not Halo SAS? No conversion required
and you mean 135mm hub I think0 -

the standard Qr rear hub is 10 X 135. NOT 9mm"Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

and for the other end they are often called 9mm but are really 3/8""Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Cheers for the help guys.
So it's just as simple as taking the QR out and putting a nutted axle in Nick?What We Achieve In Life, Echoes In Eternity0 -
why?
what hub?
just use it as it is."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
Parktools :?:SheldonBrown0 -
Halo spin-doctor hubs nic.
Going on horizontal dropouts, i thought nutted would be more stable, or am i wrong?What We Achieve In Life, Echoes In Eternity0 -
Its still the same size nut... just done up with a hex key instead of QR. NO difference.0

up to you, not really needed.
but for a tenner and a 10min job it is a cheap and easy change over if you feel you need to do it."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
