I was looking at pitlock skewers however they cost £30+ for a pair. There are some pairs on eBay (Tran-X and ETC) however some reviewers mentioned the skewers snapped!
Could you:
a) secure skewer on front wheel only (assuming QR rear is locked)?
or
b) plain allen key skewer on front (or will London thieves still make the effort to steal the front standard wheels?)
I have QR on front and rear and assuming this will last about 1 second in London...
Advice?
