Im going to upgrade the forks on my 2012 trance x4, most probably with fox talas 150
however the axle required for this fork is the 15QR setup,will i have to change my wheels to suit?

also if i get a new wheelset, which takes the 15qr axle,will the rear wheel still fit the frame? or do i need to get a 9mm rear and 15 front.

Thanks in advance

Found out that new hubs at least will be required so new wheel set now being budgeted for.

If you go with something like hope hubs on ur next wheel set they can be easily changed from QR to !5 and 20mm axles

I'm looking at various used hope hubbed wheel sets on ebay at present, as the difference between a new and a used set is the cost of a upgraded rear shock. Are rear wheels a standard size or do I need to find out certain measurements for that too?

You can get different widths of reAr hubs( 135mm or 142mm) but I think the most poPular are 135mm. If you take your rear wheel oi and measure the gap between the drop outs

Thats the info ive been after, its 135mm,
cheers
