Thanks. To clarify, my current bike has a 12mm x 100mm spacing in the fork, and the wheelset I'm looking at has 15mm x 100mm spacing for the front wheel. The hub is a Shimano HG.whitestone wrote: ↑Fri Jun 21, 2024 5:29 pm Most through axle wheelsets these days come with a set of spare hub caps. Pull the one for the 15mm off, put the one for the 12mm axle on. If your wheel doesn't have this feature then there are converter tubes that sit inside the hub and shim the difference.
The above assumes that the hub is the right width for the fork.
Ah , thanks. That makes sense now. Thanks peepsfaustus wrote: ↑Fri Jun 21, 2024 6:54 pm Had just this setup and simply use a slide on axle adapter, as explained above. Just a sleeve that sits over the axle, saves faffing with end caps.

Possibly cheaper options available...
