don't think the dropouts are threaded on the front as well, must check. Still would be a pain to remove and re-adjust every time I need to take the wheel off
Do you do that very often? It's only a matter of unwinding the bolt out of the way, which takes a few seconds :-)
I do agree that Hope skewers are not the best out there

I don't think monkey nuts would solve forward movement, but a hurdy gurdy might https://surlybikes.com/parts/hurdy_gurdy

What's the rear spacing? If 135mm, I have a XT qr skewer in the parts box.

@giofox
Loads of great answers!
@JVBulman geared and they are slightly back from fully forward for tyre clearance to the mudguards. Although now I am temporarily running skinnier tyres, I could push them forward again.
@atk @BareNecessities Drive side is slipping under pedal power, my screws are both at the rear at the moment, don't think the dropouts are threaded on the front as well, must check. Still would be a pain to remove and re-adjust every time I need to take the wheel off. Monkey nuts? Tell me more
Anyone has a pair of Deore skewers? I think I had them for some time and was happy about them.
