I need a new hub as my bearings are shot and I want a hub with allen kay fixing rather than the 15mm bolts that I have now, also as I use it offroad It would be nice to have it sealed better.
or can i get a allen key conversion kit from anywhere and replace the bearings ?

thanks DUDES

Only problem with leVel is that they are a relatively small manufacturer making a hub with a proprietory (sp?) cog attachment system, meaning if they go to the wall you can't get replacements. Having said that, if everyone thought like that, leVel would have gone bust ages ago, so what do I know?! However, they are VERY nice. Have you considered Goldtech?

If you have a hollow axle already you can cut to length and tap a thread inside to use a allen bolt.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
