Rabaconda Dirt Bike Changer Spindle 12/18mm — Small Hub Spindle with Adapter
The Rabaconda Dirt Bike Changer Spindle 12/18mm is designed for dirt bikes and enduro motorcycles fitted with smaller wheel hub bearings that are not compatible with the standard 20mm Rabaconda spindle. Featuring a 12mm centre spindle and a removable 18mm adapter sleeve, this system expands the compatibility of the Rabaconda Dirt Bike 3-Minute Mousse & Tyre Changer to suit a wider range of off-road motorcycles.
The adapter sleeve slides directly over the 12mm spindle, increasing the effective spindle diameter to 18mm when required. This provides accurate wheel centering, improved stability and smoother tyre and mousse changes for motorcycles with smaller wheel hub dimensions.

Performance
Correct spindle sizing is critical when changing motorcycle tyres and mousses. A spindle that is too large may not fit through the wheel hub, while an undersized spindle can result in excessive movement and poor wheel alignment.
The Rabaconda Dirt Bike Changer Spindle 12/18mm provides a flexible solution by offering two spindle diameters in one system. The 12mm spindle can be used on motorcycles with very small wheel hub bearings, while the removable 18mm adapter sleeve increases compatibility when a larger hub diameter is present.
This versatility helps maintain proper wheel positioning throughout the tyre fitting process, improving stability and making tyre and mousse changes easier and safer.
