130 mm White Industies disc hubs - can they be respaced?

[d_douglas]

I am think of rebuilding my wheels and came across some rarish 130mm spaced WI disc hubs. Is it possible to respace or replace the end cap to make them. 135 mm ?

Thanks for your replies,

Darren

If you wait about 12 hours, they've been very helpful over the phone the few times I have called...

If you are talking about the CX-11 hubs, I don't believe that the 130 can be converted to 135. I posed the question to WI via email last year, and this was the response I got:


Thanks for your e-mail. The hubs cannot be converted. The rotor placement is specific to the spacing of the hub, and necessary that position of the mount be specific to the 130mm hub shell and/or 135mm shell.

I've had the MI6CX hubs, contacted White Industries and they said no dice.

If it doesn't work out, drop me a line. I have a Trek Portland that uses a 130 rear disc hub and have been on the lookout for one...

Anyone have a lead on where the 130 mm MI6CX hubs can be sourced? They're not listed on the WI website anymore.
