The Simucube 50.8 mm to 70 mm adapter lets you fit wheels with a 50.8 mm pattern to the Simucube Link Quick Release — or to any other 70 mm pattern quick release — and adds 30 mm of clearance between the wheel and the coupling.
50.8 mm wheels, typical of formula rims, tend to place the paddles and other moving parts very close to the centre. This adapter moves the quick release 30 mm away so they do not foul. Its hollow structure lets the connectors through, so the wireless power and data transfer through LightBridge keeps working when used with Simucube Link compatible wheels.
Key features of the adapter
- Converts 50.8 mm into 70 mm: a 50.8 mm input towards the wheel and a 70 mm output towards the quick release.
- 30 mm spacer to make room for paddles and moving components close to the hub.
- Keeps LightBridge: a hollow structure that preserves wireless power and data transfer with Simucube Link compatible wheels.
- Threaded and non-threaded holes: it installs on a wide range of wheels.
- Not only for Simucube: it also serves to mount other quick releases on the 70 mm industry standard.
- Fasteners included for both interfaces.

Frequently asked questions
What exactly is this adapter for?
The Simucube Link Quick Release mounts on a 70 mm pattern, and many formula wheels use 50.8 mm. This adapter bridges the two and, along the way, moves the quick release 30 mm away from the wheel.
Why does it add 30 mm of clearance?
Because 50.8 mm wheels usually place the paddles and other moving components very close to the centre. The 30 mm stop the quick release from fouling those levers.
Do I lose the wireless power and data transfer?
No. The adapter has a hollow structure and preserves the LightBridge features of the Link Quick Release, as long as the wheel is Simucube Link compatible.
Does it work with quick releases other than Simucube?
Yes. As well as the Simucube Link Quick Release, it serves to mount other quick releases using the 70 mm industry standard pattern.
What fasteners are included?
Three M5x30 and three M5x12 hex head screws. Depending on how thick your wheel body is, you may need slightly longer screws.
Does it work with wheels that have non-threaded holes?
Yes, the adapter can be fitted to wheels with threaded and non-threaded holes alike.
