Help with vector rear Tri Hub spacing
« on: April 23, 2006, 07:03 PM »
Ok... I have an old school shimano hub and a suzue hub... both standard bmx spacing(110mm). The spacing on the rear triancle of the Vector Mark II is 95mm. I dont want to spread the rear tri and force a wheel in. If i take off both cone nuts each side it fits but the sprocket is then still hard up against the inside of the stay.... Does anyone have any clue what kind of Hub i will need to fit this bizarre spacing?

Andy ,

bitd my Vector used Tuffs most of the time , I did though put my race wheels in it once & raced it at MK . If it helps the hubs were the billet (not later cast ?) GT hubs with allen bolt collars & hollow axles , similar to the one's Darren was selling a few days ago .

Shown below in both guises :




I'll measure my chainstay width tomorrow.

Aha..... yours is the earlier VDC made model looking at the ends of the rear tri. There must be a difference in width between it and the later Vectors.
 Anyone got a later vector they can measure where the rear tri ends in a point like the MCS frames?
