How to get a kh hub on a dx frame? Adapter bearings?

I was thinking about it last night and the dx would be a sweet street/flat frame if lowered like some dude has recently done. The problem is getting the them to fit as most know the bearings are of different sizes. I don’t know if they make an adapter bearing for this use or if I could possibly special order one somewhere. Thanks for the people that do help me. I did search so bugger off. Oh yeah is there any where I could get steel bearing caps and just chop the old ones off an weld new ones on? I am sure this will help other people so just answer the question please.

Also anybody know the diameter of the kh hub flange? I might need that for getting the spokes ordered it would be nice to have just in case.

just get some ISIS bike bearings and shim to fit.

Where can you get those and THANKS.

try these…

and for shimming them…

Don’t go through all this trouble, just use a nimbus II frame, its already low clearance and lighter than the dx frame

Looks great thanks again. This will turn out fantastic!

I know I already have one of those. I want the dx because of the crown being completely flat. If grip tape is used it would make it like perfect for grown tricks. Plus I would rather use what I have then get another nimbus to when I can get it cut /welded free and paint how I wish at a very low cost.

I have held both at the same time the weight is hardly noticeable…

Grip tape doesn’t realistically do much for the dx frame, I’ve got it on mine.

Are you talking about the 24 or 20? Because the 20" DX is rediculously heavy, even more than the 24" DX.

Yeah the 20in the difference is not all that much plus a light wheel is what really matters in a street uni so you can flip it easier.
