I had an XTX, and I now have an XTR.

X was written off by insurance for a nick in the sump!!! I moved to Perth at the same time, and thought the R would be best in the outback. It was.

I brought it back with me to Africa, and would like to swop around though, I think the X is so much sexier! Also, the wider wheels do well on sand!

Im thinking of getting a standard XTR hub, and lace the XTX rim onto the R-hub, thus avoiding all the mods and simplifying the swop over when I do a RTW, probably with R-wheels.

Any ideas if this can be done?
