Bionic Balls Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 one of me riding buddies has an old megamo frame and it does indeed have a funny size hub...i think it was 150mm?!best idea i think is to weld the broken freehub fixed and run a front freewheel adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shamus Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 if its a 150mm back end then a lot of DH hubs come in that width for the wider back ends those rigs have.the pro II (not the trials one) can be bought in a 150mm spacing,but sun ringle hubs, atomlab, funn, halo and hope hubs all have 150mm options if that the size required? why not measure the spacing so you know?

Muel Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 If it's a 150 rear end, you should be able to space out the 135 with longer bolts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 I'm sure it's not 150... We are talking stock here aren't we tdubz?Also, no Megamo's came with rear freehubs either so there's something that doesn't add up here.

Bionic Balls Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 i'v just asked...and he remembers it being 155mm....tis definitely not standard...although i expect 150mm could work..?as above..i don't remember them having freehubs either..but the previous owner might've put a new freehub on? Chances are it was shit...weld it and front freewheel for sure adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
