WolfTooth DT 240 Oversized Boostinator Hub End Cap

Boostinator kits allow non-boost wheels to be mounted in Boost spacing frames and forks.

While incremental, the benefits of the “Boost” 15x110mm front and 12x148mm rear axle standards are clear: better clearance for fatter tires & rims and reduced dish for stiffer, stronger wheels. The big bummer? Taking full advantage requires not only a new frame and fork, but new wheels as well.

In response, we have developed the Boostinator. When paired with compatible 15x100mm or 12x142mm hubs, Boostinator kits allow existing wheels to be mounted in Boost-standard frames and forks. Disc and drivetrain positions are maintained and, thanks to a quick re-dish, spoke bracing angles are improved.

Boostinator kits consist of a specially-designed axle end cap and—in the case of rear kits—a precision-machined rotor spacer with a set of six high-strength bolts. In keeping with Boost specifications, the disc and cassette are shifted outboard, allowing brakes and derailleurs to function as designed.

The Boostinator DF2O is compatible with DT-Swiss 15x100mm 240s Oversize (20mm convertible) front hubs. These hubs have a threaded non-disc side endcap that has little wrench flats on it.

• Use DF-20 for 240s Oversize (20mm convertible) hubs. These hubs have a threaded non-disc side endcap that has little wrench flats on it
• Centerlock hubs are supported
• The Boostinator DF2 is also compatible with some complete DT Swiss Spline One front wheels.
• Net weight: 5g
• Rear boostinators require both a re-dish and rotor spacer
• Rear Boostinator kits are not approved for rotors larger than 183mm
• Compatible with 6-bolt FRONT wheels and SOME centerlock models
• Compatible with ONLY 6-bolt REAR wheels (there is no way to space centerlock rotors over 6mm)
• NOT recommend (or safe) for non-symmetric lacing like the 2:1 lacing found on some of Industry Nine’s wheels

Note: You will need to re-dish your wheel after installing any Boosinator
