is there a way to remove the spacers on the outside of the hub flange similar to the diatach swinger hub in order to put the 9mm conversion kit from the swinger onto the normal hub?

please help!

I know you can remove them, I've done it myself. But I'm not sure if you can buy the adapters to make is a qr. you might be able to. but I'm not sure if it has to be their swinger or not.

i have the 9mm adapters; my friend has the swinger hub but currently is using the 20mm cups, that is not the problem. I'm just building up my new frame with my old fork untill my new one comes in (its 20mm).

the question is how do you do it?

i think the way i did it was by taking a hamer and a screw driver or something of the sort, and pounding out the spacer inside that keeps the bearings from smashing in too far. pount one side out, then pound the other out. I think that's how i did it.
