Is it both front and rear spanish hubs that don't like sip tubeless rims, or just the rear?
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. It may be just spanish series 2 and early jets that have fitting issues? I'm sure I read somewhere that they don't always fit spanish rear hubs.

They fit but were a real ballache to remove from the hub once fitted on my SX without wrecking the paint finish on the fins of the hub.

Same here, and I've got a Sil 200 case with UNI hub!
My little tin of touch up paint gets regular use in that area. :cry:

They're only original once, UNI hubs have feelings too. Respect their patina.
