Hi!
I have a sun recumbant sport for which I purchased a GEBE engine and anxious to install! Question how do I replace the quick release axles for fixed axles? Is their a particular axle for the Shimano parallax FH-MC tire size is 26 x 1.5 rear and 24 x 1.5 front. As you can see I am a newbie but I am handy and would like to do it myself or would you recommend that I take it to a bike shop?
Look forward to hearing from you
Felix :>)

Welcome to the fun!

That's a very good question (sorry I can't answer it). I'm interested in changing a hub on my wheels.....maybe a thread needs to get started for wheel building.

Anyone here with this kind of experience????

Howdy Felix, welcome. I really dunno about that. Think it would be easier to swap out the wheels entirely. But I am really, really lazy. lol

Dax built a really cool recumbent; http://motorbicycling.com/f37/titan-...-yes-5069.html

Looking forward to seeing your build.
