Title: hub axle question
Post by: wildon on March 22, 2012, 07:19 PM
If i wanted to change the rear axle in a Peregrine hub from 26t to 24t can i just use a rear Skyway axle setup or will that just not fit at all?  is this a stupid question  :buck2:

Unsealed then yes. Sealed then no unless it's 59mm from bearing stop to bearing stop.  :daumenhoch:

if you need a 24 tpi axle you can get one from custom riders, no cones or bolts are included tho.
