Rockshox Boxxer - Quick Release Front Wheel / Adaptors??????

Old School Hero
Ok - So Im building an LTS for my brother, and have got a nice set of Boxxers for the front end.

I have also bought a set of mavic/hope big un wheels - but the front is quick release and the Boxxers are 20mm bolt through.

So......

Is there an adaptor to make the hub 20mm bolt through?
If so - how do you get that hub apart!!!!!!
Are there adaptors which enable to fork to receive a Q/R front hub - ive seen these but cant seem to find anywhere to buy them!

Any pointers of where to get either would be great!

Thanks
 
Hope made a converter for these, I got one from Crc years ago

To get the axle out of the big in you need to be brave, grab a rubber mallet and place the wheel so the hub is supported but that there is a hole for the axle to pass through. Hit the end of the axle until it starts to drift through the hub, once it's out you should have an axle with a bearing attached

Pop the axle into a vice clamped on the edge of the bearing or so thebearing rests on top and gently tap the axle off

Now use the axle to drift out the othe bearing

Installing the new bearings is easy just make sure the sit flush or you'll knacker them quick smart
