i got another axle from King to convert it to a standard "bolt on" axle, but i cant find the axle anywhere.I use an Atomlab Pimp 135 X10 "bolt on" back wheel on my trail bike - similar to fun nuts but work in regular dropout, unlike the issues you had with that King hub. Not as nice as a King, but it would work on your frame.
id be more than happy with that DT skewer...i didnt even know it existed. i have the 10x135 CK axle, so im guessing this will work eh?Maybe just go with a 10x135 King axle and run a DT RWS skewer?
unless im blind, they dont have it.
Yup! You'd be set!!id be more than happy with that DT skewer...i didnt even know it existed. i have the 10x135 CK axle, so im guessing this will work eh?

if Hadley had a EP deal like King does, then id still be rocking a Hadley hub on this new bike.Steve, this is what you get for jumping ship from Hadley
contact them, not everything they produce is on their website.unless im blind, they dont have it.
ill remember that for next time. thanks.contact them, not everything they produce is on their website.
yup that is the one i used for the past 3 years not a problem ever...Currently OOS at the cheapest place that sells them, but I prefer the Hadley axle (simple, light, and effective with no QR lever to damage in a crash/grind) mentioned above over the RWS or rear Maxle -

yeah i shoulda given it more time, but i can still get both and sell the RWS for when i do get the Hadley axleCall mr and mrs Hadley. They will sell and ship direct to you. Give a 'what part' thread more than 1/2 an hour, and you will tend to get more and possibly better suggestions..
weight isnt that much of a concern...i would have went with another Hadley hub, but the CK deal is too cheap to pass upThe RWS is much lighter than either of those alternatives...
I thought you'd care since you're running King's hahah
I'll remember this when you finally get fed up with your CK and go back to Hadley.weight isnt that much of a concern...i would have went with another Hadley hub, but the CK deal is too cheap to pass up
and ive seen people destroy their Hadley's before too. the King's quality is far better than the Hadleys...as is their EP price....two hubs for $265??? dear diary, jackpot.I'll remember this when you finally get fed up with your CK and go back to Hadley.
Actually tho, I don't blame you. Sh*ts expensive. Me, I would never buy a CK after having personally witness someone torque through the ring drive.
They can both get trashed, but from what I've seen/heard, Hadley gets the win for ease of maintenance and service.and ive seen people destroy their Hadley's before too. the King's quality is far better than the Hadleys...as is their EP price....two hubs for $265??? dear diary, jackpot.
the Kings are easy to work on, but even easier with their "special" tools.They can both get trashed, but from what I've seen/heard, Hadley gets the win for ease of maintenance and service.
Also, can you just call up CK and order spare parts, or do you have to go through one of their distros/dealers?
The Hadley 135x10mm axle is 56g, 7g lighter than the RWS in the same size - not that it mattersThe RWS is much lighter than either of those alternatives...
