  2. No, the bearing holders are for 40mm bearings and the KH has 42mm
    bearings.
    I have that frame and a kh hub and I have tried it but the bearing
    holders only contact the bearings in 4 places.

  4. I think torker and profile are the only splined hubs with bearings that
    will fit.

    Not too sure about the frames, I think the semcycle long neck would
    fit 42mm bearings but they are really hard to get now. I know the koxx
    free tricks frame fits and the signature (although the signature is
    ridiculously expensive).

  8. It should fit. The Nimbus II fits on a DX hub. Which is the same as
    putting your frame on a KH.

    The freestyle frame has machined bearing holders, they are not the same
    as the nimbus II holders. I am pretty sure the DX has 40mm bearings
    anyway.

    I think it would be VERY difficult to grind down the frame so it fit
    well. Maybe if you had access to a milling machine and the skills to
    use it, or someone to do it for you.

    You could shim the bearing holders w/ a few layers of increasing length
    of metal tape. I did this on my Nimbus X to get clearance for a 2.25"
    Max Daddy. The bolts loosen much more easily and I'm sure the frame is
    weaker this way around the bearings, since there is effectively a
    smaller lip over the edge of the bearing.

    Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere. If you can ride where you
    are going within a hour, do it, and if you can do a trick 50-75% of the
    time do it along the way.
    Parafrasing a pro skater when asked for advise to kids who wanted to
    get much better and maybee turn pro one day.
