Does anyone still make a Thru axle 20mm Rear Hub ?
Talk to hadley. They make a 17mm rear hub and adapters to make them fit most,if not all, frames designed for 20mm rear hubs

yup.

That said why do you want a 20mm rear end? (unless you ahve a bike that absolutely needs one).

They are pretty much useless, i rode one for 2 years and didnt notice a difference between the 12mm and 20mm axle setups (i could switch back and forth by changing dropouts).

Thanks for the info.
That is a major bummer. Is there anyway you can get some inserts machined so that you could run a 12mm? Seems like it would be simple enough...

Canada EH !
I have a spare second axle with 20mm inserts on the ends which I thought was 12mm but I measured it and it's 14mm axle, is there such a thing as 14mm hub ?

I believe Hadley makes what you are looking for.

a 15mm TA Hadley hub and some spacers to make it fit on the 20mm droputs will work fine!
a friend of mine uses this setup on his piranha and didn't have any problems with it.
i have a similar setup on my Fatty Fat which also works good.

What happened to your hub??? I thought that thing was indestructible!

Yeti DH-9's have 20mm dropouts as well. I'm using the 15mm Hadley spaced out and it works find.

There's one other company that's makes 20mm hubs that came stock on some Yeti's, can't remember though.

Nuh-uh. According to Yeti, the new bikes are coming with Hadleys. They used to come with 15 mm Edco hubs, but they've gone away from those too....
