Scott Gibbs Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Is there a way to make the front axle to take bolts rather than a QR skewer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onzatpro09 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 You can get one custom machined up. Euan Beaden does them, so try giving him a shout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieWilliams Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Euan Beaden made me one ready for me 24" build give him a message on facebook https://www.facebook.com/euan.beaden?fref=ts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 You can make a far easier and better version than that. 15mm aluminium rod 99mm long tapped to take Pro 2 bolts (m15?) and drill the standard quick release end caps. Looks OEM and works a lot better! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isitafox Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 15mm od bar Tap it to take the bolts then drill the standard end caps so it goes through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isitafox Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Used to be yeahWorks a treat as it fits through the bearing spacer so you don't have to remove bearings or anything, just pop the endcaps out, drill them then refit and slot it through!

gage-mann Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 Or just run a m6 tap in both ends of the qr axle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 There isn't a qr axle in a Pro 2. You can do that on a Hope XC however. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
