I just got my NRG quick release hub today and when I installed it on my hub I already had, the wheel sticks out A LOT..... What I think I need is a thinner hub to go w/ the Quick release... Is that right or is there something I should or could do? TIA

shane

 

up

 

I would contact the company you purchased it from or the vendor.

 

I bought it strait from NRG... But the thing is, that now it's like double the length.. (Hub plus quick release) Is there any companies that make/sell thinner hubs.. My hub right now is about 4" long + or - a half inch....

 

yeah you could get the short hub if you dont like the way it feels

personally i liked the way it felt when i added on the quick release

 

Yeah it does stick out a bit. I have the MOMO hub on mine and then I put the NRG quick release on saw a big difference. I like it though not that big of a deal

 

I just don't like it, It doesn't feel right to me... where can I find a "thin" hub?

 

ebay

 

I looked on ebay but I didn't see anything that said how deep it is or if it's thin or not...

Exactly. It's normal for them to stick out farther than stock. Is the wheel hitting you in the face or something?

 

not quite... But i'm not a tall person so I can't really put my seat back tooooo much further. If I do then i'll be using my "tippy toes" to shift and what not... I just feel wierd... Maybe i'll just have to get used to it then...

 

i felt the same when i installed my NRG QR. Give it a month or two and youll get used to it.

I hated mine when i got it but now i love it

 

Alright then... I'll give it a little bit of time, I guess... But in the mean time, i'm still looking for a thinner hub...

 

i believe the boss hub has an option of getting the shorter one...i say sell your nrg one and go with a the shortened boss hub with the FET quick release...

 

I use a Sparco quick release with a MOMO hub. The Sparco unit only adds about 1/2" to the spacing, most of the quick release fits inside the momo hub adapter. They are not cheap though, about $500 Cdn.

500 Cdn wow you're not kidding about it not being cheap... I'll probably just stick w/ what I got LOL.....

 

I got an "inside" word that says nrg will be coming out with a shorter hub to remedy that problem. Should be out soon

Inside word huh? LOL I was at sema this past week and they didn't mention anything... But then again, I didn't ask... LOL I hope they do, cause' I am not liking this setup...

 

the combination i suggested is about as long as the regular momo hub...

 

whats the best price on NRG QR?
and also on momo hub...

i saw some jdmcarboy but that seems like alot

 

I got the worksbell short boss from japan for $$. but it puts the wheel at a perfect distance.
