Hub body spacers?

Sirbikesalot · 02-17-2009, 08:54 PM

I'm looking to get a handful of hub body spacers. I have a single speed set up on my DJ which has a standard 9speed hub and horizontal dropouts.

Anyway, I'm converting it to single speed and need more of those cheapo spacers that cassets use in the higher gears. Right now I have random casset pieces thrown in and it's kinda janky looking. Does anyone know where to get a handful of these from? I wish Danscomp had em!

(CBO has a kit for like 38 bucks!)

I use this w/ a standard AtomLab bolt on hub and horizontal dropouts.:

$20, not bad. you can switch the spacers and it includes 2 cogs.

If you want to go even cheaper for $12.98, PricePoint's house brand Sette has a similar kit:

On a side note, I've often wondered about their "Sette Ryde ST-850 Suspension Dropper Seatpost". For only $35, I'd think the extra weight wouldn't be a big deal compared to the GravityDropper and other more expensive models.

I might actually have a few for you, but have to check.

I used the Sette kit on my old ride and it worked well. I might also have some spare parts from that kit lying around.
