ukai wheels with suntour hubs dont fit on pk ripper ....

[bokbok]

hi all i bought some ukai,s the other day off a lad on here with suntour sealed hubs, and they arrived this morning so i got all excited and put the tyres on then when i treid to put the drop savers on the spindles so i can put it on my pk ripper looptail they dont fit on front and back, do i need some bigger drop out savers or do i need some new spindles ? 

[daz bmx it!]

You possible need to file the drop out savers a bit or maybe need bigger,lmk if you wanna sell them if you do decide or have to buy bigger ones

[bokbok]

i dont think they would be owt left on the drop outs i,m gutted as they look the dogs nuts on the bike if i could get them on  but yes they will getting sold if they dont go on

[Gashead]

Get some pics up of the akles close to the drop out savers - there is no reason why they should not fit !

[bokbok]

i will do its like the spindles are a bit to fat lol

[markyp]

best thing to do is sell me them wheels!!!!

[magna13]

Sorry if im not helping but they're a beautiful set of wheels buddy

[bokbok]

i,ve made them have it they on the bike, i wanted them on the bike if it killed me i bought 2 sets of wheels the ukai,s in gold then the black arayas of meticus, so i,m selling the araya,s as i think the ukai,s look the business. i knocked all the soaps of the head tonight to file them drop out savers. i feel better now

[hunterdubber]

That looks as though its gonna be an AWESOME Ripper

make sure you finish the rest of it of at that standard mate , it's a real beaut  



Did the Suntour axles not have flat sides  ?( narrower , therefore being too fat to easily slot into your Landing gears  

[bokbok]

yes they did have a flat side but its the drop savers did not fit on the suntour spindles but they do now, i,m waiting for the tuff neck headstem to come back and i can put it all back together

Hi, only just seen this post and see you now have your wheels fitted so a bit late. I just wanted  to point out  that the hubs you have are fitted with 10mm spindles, slightly bigger than 3/8" that your frame savers possibly are hence the reason for filing.

Ripper's looking fat!!
