    Hi I ordered a non abs front hub from GSF but a abs hub arrived, now the abs ring is just attached with 3 screws. My question is can I just unscrew the abs ring, as I am assuming the hubs are the same. Any replies appreciated.
    Thanks

    Thanks guys. It's not my daily driver so got time to pull it apart and check they are the same. I have bought new bearing also as I presume it is not possible to remove the old one without trashing it.

    It's not worth the hassle of taking the old one out for the price of a new one :)
