My current cross bike takes QRs front and back, but Thru Axels seem to be the way forward. If I was to purchase new wheels, I would like them to be Thru Axels, as I'm thinking about changing the fork (initially), and changing the frame (eventually). Is there a convertor I can use to use QRs on my current frameset, until I change over to Thru Axels?
If you are hand building the wheels get hubs that have swappable end caps. Hope, certain Novatech etc. They allow you to swap between the different axle standards quickly and easily.
Thru Axels! I don't understand them.
