Forget it, if you cant be arsed checking your wanted ads, despite being notified you've received a reply, why bother asking in the first place.

Have Pro2 rear axle and end caps but don't know about compatability with bulb hubs

I couldnt answer that one for sure. The hubs might be a different width bearing to bearing so with fitted caps it might be far too wide or too narrow. The other thing is you'd need to find a different bearing to the standard hub, one with the correct outside for the hub, and the correct inside for the hollow axle that the pro2 uses.

What I would do is contact Hope. The keep spares for a long time and you might find they still have the QR adaptor, though you'd need to specify it is for the 6 bolt hub.
