Just got a Boost Frame or Fork and need to get your standard hubs to fit? Enter the Boostinator!
CNC Machined In the USA from 6061 Aluminium and anodized to ensure longevity, the Boostinator allows non-Boost wheels to be mounted in Boost frames and forks while allowing brakes and derailleurs to function as designed.
Once you've installed your Boostinator - generally about 5 minutes, you'll need to re-dish your wheel which will improve the spoke bracing angles. Sure it won't be quite as stiff as a Boost specific hub, but it won't be far off, and you'll have plenty of cash still in your back pocket.
Who's this item for: The Boostinator is for people that have 15x100mm or 12x142mm hubs and need to convert them to fit a frame or fork using the Boost standard of 15x110mm or 12x148mm.
Materials: CNC machined in the USA from 6061 Aluminium
What's included: Boostinator kits consist of a specially-designed axle end cap. Rear kits also include a precision-machined rotor spacer with a set of six high-strength bolts.
- Front Boostinators consist of an endcap only and do not require a rotor spacer.
- Rear Boostinators consist of an end cap and rotor spacer.
- Rear Boostinator kits are not approved for rotors larger than 183mm
Compatibility:
- Compatible with 6-bolt FRONT wheels and SOME Centrelock models
- Compatible with ONLY 6-bolt REAR wheels (there is no way to space centrelock rotors more than 6mm)
- NOT recommend (or safe) for non-symmetric lacing like the 2:1 lacing found on some of Industry Nine’s wheels
2017+ model DT Swiss 1500 series front wheels are not compatible with the DF2 (front boostinator). To determine if your wheelset is compatible, remove the non-rotor side endcap and measure the OD. If the OD is 28mm, the DF2 is NOT compatible. The DF2 is only compatible if the OD is ~29.7mm.
See the link below for DT Swiss compatibility, if it's not listed there it is not compatible.
