Turn back wheel into frontwheel
Hi guys!

Does anyone of you know if it's possible to turn this carbon trispoke backwheel into a frontwheel?

And if it's possible, how?

Thanks!

Ride backwards.

If you've only got one, that sounds like a heck of an opportunity to make a TT unicycle.

1. Remove the QR skewer and all the axle hardware.

2. Buy a HED front track axle. A Suzue Pro Max SB font track axle also works.

3. Install it.
