I am building a 2001 kx kdx hybrid and want to lace up an 18 inch wheel on the back. I have a kx 250 rear tire now. The 18 inch rim is easy to order but does anyone know what spokes i need to purchase to do the swap?

Hi I did the same and used a 2001 kx125 hub which I think are the same. I just ordered ebay morse racing stainless steel spokes to suite a 18" rim. All worked out fine.

The spoke kits come for specific models. Does any one know the model of bike i need to order the spokes for

Get the 18" spoke kit for what ever hub you use.

Im using a kx250 hub 2001 i believe. They dont make an 18" spoke kit for that. Lots of guys on here have done the conversion i just need to know what rim they used and what spokes they used.

Standard 36 hole rim and spoke kit should work.

Yep I just did mine last week 2000 kx 250 hub 36 h ok e excel rim. Moose 18" spoke kit.

Thanks for all posts. But i cant bring myself to spend the money yet on a should work haha does anyone know absolutly 100% what rim and spokes to buy?

Ok sounds great thanks

Well i just ordered a tusk racing 18 inch rear and a moose racing 18" spoke kit i will let u know how it goes

The KDX rear wheel should fit right on if you use the KX wheel spacers. Same sprocket and rotor also.

^+1 I used my KDX wheel on my hybrid, just use the KX spacers. Just occured to me that maybe you didn't build your hybrid with a full KDX to start from? In that case the rim/spokes you ordered laced to your KX rim will work.

Ordered a tusk impact 18 inch rear and a pro wheel 18 inch spoke kit with stock kx 250 hub worked beauty
