Does anyone know if you can fit a SIP tubeless rim onto a Scoot RS front outboard disc setup without fitting the extended studs? My hub is painted and the original studs are stuck solid and I could do without heating the hub and knackering the paint.

Cheers

Thanks - that's unfortunate.

Any ideas on getting the studs out without damaging the paint on the hub?

Why ?? my scootrs anti dive has been faultless since fitting and is more than adequate for stopping my Avanti from high speeds !! and at half the price, binning a £250 disc brake which is more than fit for purpose that just needs new studs fitting for an expensive item that will do the same :roll:

you willl be telling me next Primarks not as good as Armani :D

Lol, sorry Andy. It was meant as tongue in cheek as he's a mate. Didn't mean to offend.

Oh, and yeah primark is s**t you cheapskate.
