Hello all,
I'm embarking on a 'just for fun' project in which I'm upgrading an old MTB bike that I've had for nearly 16 years.
This bike currently has a brand of rear hub that I cannot find any information about; 'Sovos'. What I can tell you all is that the O.L.D. in the rear is ~120mm. I have to say ~120mm because the fork ends are just slightly warped. We tried getting a 126mm freehub to fit into it, but that was nothing doing. I havent yet purchased a new rim/wheel for this project as of yet.
I'm looking for anyone with information on where to purchase a decent MTB rear hub with 120mm spacing. I'm open to used parts, as long as they arent on their last leg and would like to purchase a new hub if possible, but something that doesnt cost more than the old gal is worth. The freewheel (I think that's what it is anyhow) hub is currently a 6 speed, and I would like to at least stick with a 6 speed hub.
Thanks a lot for any feedback you all can provide!
