Mat Smith! Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 Just change the axel and driveshell to mod ones, get em off ebay or summet.Matx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onza Kieron Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 Yeah, I Think it could be done with alot of work but I seriously doubt it worth it. I'm sure you could sell your existing setup to fund a mod one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

basher Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 Am i only one to nitce that on tunnis rear hub hes using a nut and not a bolt, surgesting hes somehow put a thread axel in it like cup and cone bearing hubs have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinJI Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 Just as a warning, if you do this you will need to adapt the disc mount for use with an IS break, due to the cones on the BMX hubs being shorter, when the shell is switched to the ISO one, it leaves the disc mount closer the the dropout than on a standard ISO hub, So the disc needs mounting thurther out than on the standard mount, due the the rotor being placed thurther out.Not sure what tunis done to his, but I can pretty much guarente that he's shortened the non-drive side cone in a similar way to the BMX hubs, so it'd still cause the same problem. Someone on here wrote a pretty good how-to on making an adapter to fit a BMX hub with an ISO shell to a mod frame with IS mounts, Can't really remember who it was but they were running a pink CK on an 06 (?) monty 221ti.

Josh Greenan!!!!!!!!!! Posted August 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 So the caliper will need spacing away from the frame? How far away do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basher Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 So the caliper will need spacing away from the frame? How far away do you think? Inur did one if i remember correctly just search for that topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 yeah it's in faqIt'll fit better in a 221pr, if you use it in a 221ti you'll snap the frame sooner or later due to the different hub spacing.You could always machine down the disc mount on the frame, caliper and the rotor mount on the hub. That's what Oakley did to his bike and he ran that hub without any adapters. Probably a better idea if you don't mind grinding a hub worth 250 pounds.
