In the description of the YYF Hubstack kit, it said that they can be equipped on an 888. Does this include the DV888?

the 888 is made to use them. you can do a dv888 like i did, but it would be a little hard

What kind of work would have to go into something like that?

you can replace the dv888 axle with a hubstack axle. then add hubstacks . this is compatible ESCPEICALLY with DV888 because dv888 has a go-through axle.

go-through axle = if you take the axle out, you can actually see through the whole yoyo!

Ok, thank you. I was thinking this is how you do it, but I wanted to be sure. This is good to hear because I already have a Dv888 and I wanted to try some hubstack play.
