The Hope Pro2 Evo/Pro4 Rear Hub Axle Conversion Kit is designed for mountain bike enthusiasts and mechanics looking to adapt older high-performance wheelsets to modern frame standards. By providing a seamless transition to the 142x12mm thru-axle system, this kit ensures that riders can maintain their existing hubs while upgrading their frames; however, users should verify their specific hub model compatibility before purchase to ensure a proper fit.

No, this kit is specifically designed for the Pro2 Evo and Pro4 models.
No, it is a press-fit design that can be installed by hand, though a rubber mallet may be used if the fit is particularly tight.
The kit is designed to maintain the standard chainline for the specified hub model when properly installed.
No, this kit includes the hub end caps only; the 12mm thru-axle is typically provided by your frame manufacturer.
Yes, a light application of waterproof grease on the interface points helps prevent seizing and protects against moisture ingress.
Verify you are using the correct kit for your specific Pro2 Evo or Pro4 hub; ensure the end cap is fully seated.
Check that your frame is indeed designed for the 142x12mm standard and that the axle is fully inserted through the hub.
To install, remove the existing end caps from your Pro2 Evo or Pro4 hub—this can usually be done by hand or with simple pliers wrapped in a cloth to prevent marring. Once removed, ensure the internal axle is clean and lightly greased. Press the new 142x12mm end caps into position until they seat firmly against the hub shell. Always double-check that the axle spins freely before installing the wheel into the frame. For care, inspect the O-rings on the end caps during annual service and re-apply a thin layer of waterproof bicycle grease to ensure a weather-tight seal.
