Chris King rear hub question.

I'm about to possibly purchase a set of wheels off ebay, the hubs are Chris King which is really what I've been looking for. I know that the servicing is an issue so please don't start with the "why do you want chris king when........."
The issue is this, the rear hub comes from ebay with a standard fun bolt up axle. My frame has a 12mm bolt through jobby. The question is this. Can I convert the hub to a 12mm bolt through and how is it done?
Many thanks.

Possibly, but I doubt your frame is designed for a bolt thru.0

With respect, I know what my rear axle spec is.0 -
Ah, I see, I misunderstood your question. I thought you had a bolt up axle and wanted to change to bolt thru.
What is your frame and dropouts (just curious!)0 -
Looking at the Tech Specs:

It would appear they are not convertible. The same goes for the Classic hub.0 -
One thousand thank you's, Thats just saved me a £500 mistake. My frame is a cube fritzz. It's standard 135mm dropouts with a maxle 12mm bolt through.0
