Hi everyone
I am close to buying a set of Enve 3.4 disc wheels on Chris King R45D hubs set up as 12mm thru axle.
My frame is QR rear (not thru axle) so I would need to convert the rear hub to QR.
Can anyone kindly post a link to the right product, or give me a part no.? I am struggling in the minefield of CK spare parts and not sure I'm looking at the right thing.
Thanks very much.

I think you may be looking for Part No PHB705 as I haven't located any other rear axle QR converters
but they appear to be unavailable on the Chris King website. Have found them listed on a UK site called Bromley Bike
https://www.bromleybike.co.uk/shop/comp ... 18907.html
and also on a South Korean site
https://www.bicyclehero.com/gb/chris-ki ... rs-x2.html
Not sure on the veracity of either supplier but at least you could call the UK source to check that you are buying the correct converter0 -
Thanks, appreciate that. Not sure whether i will actually need a full replacement axle like this

Turns out I will need the following two parts:
PHB646 - Rear axle 135mm
PHB768 - Rear QR axle end
If anyone has any info on where I might be able to get them, that would be really helpful. I'm struggling to find anywhere apart from Chris King direct, from the US, with crazy shipping charges.
Thanks v much0 -
Can a UK Chris King stockist not order them for you? Saddleback are the importer, many, many UK shops have accounts with Saddleback, possibly one of them could help you.
