I’ve used the simple ones that you push through the axle they come in different lengths and diameter 142mm and 135 for rear 100mm for the front

I can see cramming 142mm hub into 135mm spaced carbon frame going really well lol.

If you post pics of your new hubs here I can tell you whether they are convertible.

you need to tell us what the hubs and frame / forks are currently .

Those things look downright dangerous, just post which wheels/hubs they are as someone will tell you if they can be converted, and you'll need to replace the end caps, rather than using a death axle.

Give them a few decades, you’ll see they’ll have the last laugh.

Probably some asian rebranded hub on these. You need to ask merlin if they have conversion kits, if they can be converted, or find what they are and order directly from China

I'm hopefully buying a set of carbon wheels for my Specialized road bike but both wheels are thru axle hubs. What size of adapters do i need to convert to QR, any recommendations?
