Where can I get an 8 degree rear hub cone?
Everyone I've tried sells 11 degree or doesn't give any details of what they are selling or just says what they have will fit various models!

Anyone??
Tried calling a few dealers and non of them knew what angle the cones they had were, and a couple said it didn't really matter

I saw one on ebay in the US. I've got one but it stays with the hub.

Thanks for the link Mark but I just spoke to SR today and the bloke I spoke to didn't know what angle their GP/LI cones had.
I have just bought a cone from another dealer that was described as fitting LI/GP and that was a SIL 11 degree cone and it doesn't fit my Italian GP150 rear hub which needs a 8 degree cone.
I'm waiting to hear back from MBD about their own brand cones.

Early S1 bikes had a 20 degree taper
S2's and S3's had an 11 degree taper
I think the GP range had the 8 degree cone

Then the hard part to find should be a 20 degree cone. Now days if you buy indian and its new, its probably GP.
MB cones are only going to fit the later GP style.
If you get lucky, you make be able to contact Tino and see what he has. I thought he was redoing S1 rear hubs so it would make sense if he also produced cones for those as well.
