Hi guys, I wanted to know if there is any 3 wheeler that has a 20mm axle?
Because I recently found a atc 250r front hub and rim at the local recycling center, and I decided to strip the gold anodizing off the rim and polish it to match my rear rims on my Alt 185, but the problem is the alt axle is 17mm and the axle from the hub I found is only 15mm.
So the problem is the alt bearings are too big to go in the 250 hub, and the bearings in the 250 hub are to small to fit the alt's 17mm axle, and I didn't want to use a smaller axle than it had stock, because I have no suspension as it is so I figure thats why the axle is so large.
So I figured I'll just get some 17x42mm bearings online,just to find out the only ones in 17mm I could find are only 40mm O.D., but I can get 20x42mm bearings.
Thanks for any help you can give me.
