horizontal dropouts and QR
Hi
This may seem rather obvious, but bear with me. Can I run my QR skewers on my current rear wheel with a frame that has horizontal dropouts? Or do I need to get a bolt-through axle? If I do, what are my options? Is a whole new hub necessary, or am I able to get an axle and bolts that would fit into the current hub? Thanks -- Matt Fear of a flat planet |
