I was wondering if King makes a hub that fits the older version of the V10 w/ floater. I called SC and they say that the hub that comes with the frame is a 15mm by 140mm, am I correct? I currently have a 12mm by 135mm rear King hub thats not being used, I am sure there is no way I convert it so I was thinking of selling it and getting another but I wasnt sure if they made one in that size. If anyone knows please speak up.

king does not make a hub for the v10 or one that can be converted. i'm surprised you have a 12mm one, you sure its not a 10mm?
didn't think that they made anything bigger then that

Post your hub for sale or trade. I have had at least 3 people try sell me the hub your looking for. I had posted a 135mmx12 for sale and everyone want to trade these unique hubs for my hub. Unfortunately, I have no use for a 140x15

No one exept Hadley makes a 140x15mm hub. It is a custom hub for only that frame.

If you were to try to space a 135mm to work, the problem is the brake rotor mount. You would also need colars and custom Fun Bolts to make the King work. It's probably possible if you have a machine shop.

Think it would be expensive to make? I thought about it breifly, and if I had an axle made like the qr20 on the zoke forks, the ends could be 15mm and the middle could be 10mm. Then add some spacers and maybe like make a replica of the bolt pattern to bolt onto the actual hub to hold the rotor? Anyone have anymore Ideas?

Hmmm...
Just an idea, but what if you made 15mm spacers that screw onto an existing 10mm axle, like QR skewers? This way, only two adidtional pieces are needed, which act as the spacer and 15mm axle. Possibly have the non-drive side shorter so you can have a bolt pattern spacer to fit the rotor to. I haven't the slightest clue what the ass end of a V10 looks like, but just tossing out an idea. The spacers would proabably be a weak point, especially when torqued in the dropouts.

Oh yea...
I would probably just get a Hadley and not mess with it. Either way you will end up waiting, and end up spending money. The hadley was designed for the frame, so it's probably the hub to provide optimal performance. Plus, you have the added risk of breaking or damaging the King hub with no warranty.
