Wolftooth Boostinator DF3 FRONT DT 350/370

Boostinatorkits allow existing wheels to be mounted in Boost-standard frames and forks

Adapting to a changing world

As much as we love new and improved gear, the rapid proliferation of bicycle-related ‘standards’ can be confusing, frustrating, and costly to consumers.

While incremental, the benefits of the “Boost” 15x110mm front and 12x148mm rear axle standards are clear: better clearance for fatter tires & rims and reduced dish for stiffer, stronger wheels. The big bummer? Taking full advantage requires not only a new frame and fork but new wheels as well.

In response, we havedeveloped theBoostinator. When paired with compatible 15x100mm or 12x142mm hubs,Boostinatorkits allow existing wheels to be mounted in Boost-standard frames and forks. Disc and drivetrain positions are maintained and, thanks to a quick re-dish, spoke bracing angles are improved.

Boostinatorkits consist of a specially-designed axle end cap and—in the case of rear kits—a precision-machined rotor spacer with a set of six high-strength bolts. In keeping with Boost specifications, the disc and cassette are shifted outboard, allowing brakes and derailleurs to function as designed.

Compatibility

• • Specific model compatibility listed below under the “Models” section
    

• • Front boostinators are only an endcap and do not require a rotor spacer. The wheel is re-dished
    

• • Rear boostinators require both a re-dish and rotor spacer

• • Rear Boostinator kits are not approved for rotors larger than 183mm
    

• • Hubs spacing is 100mm front and 142 rear, and the Boostinators make them 110 and 148 respectively
    

• • Compatible with 6-bolt FRONT wheels and SOME centerlockmodels
    

• • Compatible with ONLY 6-boltREAR wheels (there is no way to space centerlock rotors over 6mm)

• • NOT recommend (or safe) for non-symmetric lacing like the 2:1 lacing found on some of Industry Nine’s wheels
