Do I need to use the 450 carrier

no, the honda 450 actually uses the same carrier bearings as ours.

You need a honda 450 axle (preferably RPM), and the sprocket hub/lock-nut set up I have (which was made by RPM).

So you used the sprocket hub that came with it? I'm not sure if this is a new thing or if they have always done this, but I know they include the sprocket hubs now for all honda models.

Assuming you used the hub that came with it, did you simply slide the axle in and install the Cdale brake hub?

If so, that's a sweet find!

No, you can not use the honda 450 sprocket hub. I had rpm make me a batch of canondale sprocket hubs that make it so we can use the Honda 450 axle.

So if buy a honda 450 axle from someone, you will need to press off the sprocket that is on it, and press on the hub I had made.

Make sense?

Here are some pics for you. Carrier and black parts are the stock canondale parts.
