    Hi mate if you reverse the harbour on the vitrex, you can use a 16mm or 22mm bore on your wheel.

    Hope this helps.

    When you take off the wheel, the harbour is the hub the wheel fits on to, If you get a scraper and lever off the harbour, then turn it around, you have the choice of bore sizes, 16mm/22mm. The only reason I know this is through the forums.

    Hope this makes sense
