I've bought some Yokomo 12mm alloy wheel hexes to try on the front. They look like they will fit??

Will try soon??

Are they narrower? will it fit in the BRCA box?

[mr emily]

What thickness are the wheel hexes on an X2c?

@toooldskool,

I think you need to some adjusting with the axles if you are planning on not using the B4 axle conversion. I am lead to believe that the XTE alloy hexes will go on with some drilling out and then I think the X2C axles need to be cut back - but I might be wrong.

That's what i've done. fitted X4 hubs on the front - they are the thinnest hubs i could find, as the pin goes on the front of the hub, not the back. they do need to be drilled out bigger to fit though & you may need to sand off any burrs on the wheel where the moulding has left lumps to stop binding.

Also i have been told a good tip (think it was on here or on the Ansmann UK racers facebook page, fit some 8th clutch shims as spacers if you get problems with binding.
