Nice guide, yes I forgot to add you need the bigger outer hinge pin screws.

Actually, is the car narrower with these on? back to backed it with a regular one tonight and it seemed a few mm narrower. I was expecting it to be wider.

To be fair I've no issue with using the AE bearing front axles as I've lots of wheels to use.

RE: Hex Front wheels:

I guess what's now missing is the rear hex part number specifically for the BMAX2?

Right, but that's not a big thing. Finally we've got the official conversion kit, so I guess I can put my AE conversion to rest before running it once. I am not a big fan of workaround solutions.
The hex conversion might be the last upgrade for my trusty Max. After running the Yoke for two years, there's definitely room for something new next to it and my son's SC10.

Every hex wheel of other brands or tire brands should work. There isn't any significant offset to that wheel.

I am wondering how long it will take for the updated shock cartridges to become available in the UK.
