Visual Difference CK vs CKR45 Hubs?

[Splash]

I received my wheelset build recently and ordered CKR45 hub. When i look on their build card, i see "CK" with the "R45".

How do i know if i have the CKR45 hub?

thanks Steve.

Is it possible to tell the difference between these 2 hubs from a visual aspect?

r45 has cutouts in rear nds flange, classics don't

[zetroc]

R45s have a bell-shaped taper from the nds to the ds. Classics are straight, or nearly so.

Here's what one looks like

The Classics are sexy, but the R45's are supermodel sexy.

That should clear things up.

dumb question - what is the Flange Diameter non-Drive Side? i want to measure this dimension.

reason why i ask - is that i measure 63mm on what i think is the flange,but the spec says 51mm.

i have 24 spokes - does this automatically mean it is ckr45?

and what about the front hub - how to tell if ck r45?
