Yeah, I like the Tripster arse end where it has little hoods that the wheel stops at so you can drop it and shove the axle in easily. The fucking Sequoia has none of these 'hub stoppers' so it's just floating around and you basically have to look through the end of the dropout to see if you've got the thru axle anywhere near the bloody hole. Such a simple addition makes wheel removals a fucking doddle.

Wheel MFGS have a hanger with a "stopper" (if I understand you correctly);

Do you have the problem where the hanger bolts are too long, so you have to pull the stays apart to drop the wheel out? Been meaning to file them down but it's low on the list of to-dos.

Odd. I’ve never had this issue. I’ve never taken the wheel out not in a stand though. But iirc putting the rear back in seems to hit something to stop it going up further

Similar with Specialized, the hanger only have one bolt to attach it to the drop out, as well as having a slot for the wheel to sit, and the thread is in the frames, meaning it will move when you remove it, cue people thinking they fucked their bike up being unable to push the axle in.
Fortunately the wheel manufacturing version is better, but still.
