Product Information

Full details

The DT Swiss Front Hub Conversion Kit is an essential upgrade for cyclists looking to adapt their existing 2011 or newer DT 240 Center Lock Disc hubs to modern 15mm x 100mm thru-axle standards. This kit is perfect for riders upgrading their forks or moving components between bikes, offering a precise, factory-engineered fit. The primary caveat is that it is exclusively designed for hubs with an 18mm outer diameter axle, so users must verify their current hub specifications before installation to ensure compatibility.

FAQs

Will this work with a 6-bolt rotor hub?

No, this kit is designed specifically for DT 240 Center Lock Disc hubs.

Do I need special tools for the installation?

Generally, DT Swiss end caps can be removed and installed by hand or with simple soft-jaw pliers.

Is this kit compatible with DT 350 hubs?

No, this kit is specifically engineered for the DT 240 series hub.

Can I use this for a 110mm Boost spacing fork?

How do I know if my axle is 18mm?

You can measure the outer diameter of the existing axle protruding from the hub shell using a digital caliper.

Troubleshooting

End caps do not fit onto the axle

Verify your hub has an 18mm outer diameter axle. If the hub is older than 2011, this kit will not fit.

Wheel feels loose in the fork after installation

Ensure the end caps are fully seated and that the fork thru-axle is torqued to the manufacturer's recommended specification.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility Note: This kit is strictly for 2011 and newer DT 240 Center Lock hubs featuring an 18mm outer diameter axle. Always confirm your axle diameter with a caliper if you are unsure of your hub's production year. To maintain the kit, lightly grease the internal O-rings of the end caps during annual service to ensure smooth installation and weather resistance.
