Any data on the QR vs hex skewer claim?
I’d have thought that a properly-lubricated Cr-Mo hex skewer has the potential for greater clamping force than a hand-applied closed-cam QR... Or is the torsion always too great over such a long and thin bolt?
Or is the torsion always too great
Think this is the issue
