Did you take note of the sizes for the spacers? Could you post them?

I missed that one. Ooopps. One other question: did you have any issues with the steering lock. I.e. did steering lock still work with new trees.
Cheers.

I just did it with mine, kept stock wheel, did a whole write up here about it showing drawings for the spacers and part numbers.

Just do a search?

Just searched your posts and found this gem:

Very nice. Will print that out as a template--ta mate!
That bike looks awesome. I like the 200mm rear tire project you did too.

At the risk of sounding like a broken record: does you bike steering lock still work with the new trees?

Cheers.

***Edit*** Hey Daggs, dont suppose you have a picture of the rotor spacer you fabbed? Thanks again man--great stuff.

rotor spacer is pictured in the write up, its linked to an Australian forum I'm a member of.
The picture doesn't show the holes drilled in the spacer but I just used the rotor as a template for drilling.

With the steering lock, I have no idea, I've never used the steering lock in the past so I'll try it tonight when I get home and let you know.

Could you please post how wide from rotor mounting/hub face to rotor mounting/hub face of a Fat Bob hub. Thank You in advance.
