I bought a set of 24" halo combat wheels for my lads stinky jr build the, front hub takes a standard 160mm disc no problem but on the rear hub the disc holes don't match up.

What type of disc will the rear take any ideas the lad I bought them off was running a hope O2 brake and disc on it is this a different 6 hole pattern ?


Thanks for the help in advance

    There are a few different standards, in what way doesn't it fit, bolts or location bore, I assume it's six bolt?

    Should be a standard fitting 6 bolt hub.

    That was my thought, suggesting a slight compatibility issue.

    yeah its a 6 bolt hub but the holes are slightly misaligned i just wondered if there was a different type of six bolt disc seems strange as the front is standard,will get a pic uploaded of the hub with disc against it

    only one 6 bolt standard. what is the rear hub?

    have you tried the front disc to check it is not the rear disc that is at fault.

    Tried 3 different discs on the rear Nick the front fits a 6 bolt disc fine,they are standard halo combat wheels not sure if halo hubs or who they use for their wheels,the rear can be used as either canti or disc brakes and seller said it was a 165mm hope disc he ran on it so wasnt sure if that if that was a different bolt hole centre.

    its got me beat ive searched all over to find out why it wont take a normal disc
