Mmmm...I would much rather have bolt-up but maybe I have to play with what I have got.....question is...has anybody run track-end with QR (or bolt) skewers. Did you use a tuggnut...any alternatives to Surly with their 6mm adapter.

I currently use a single DMR chain tug with a Halo bolt up skewer and it works really well.

Lighter than a bolt up too :cool:

From BITD & BMX I only used one chain tug.

Adjust tug to tension chain then align wheel - tighten and away you go
:D
 
Shimano Skewers. Sheldon recommends them, and so do I. Clamp a lot tighter than Ti!
I wouldn't fancy aligning the wheel without tug nuts though...

Saw the frame :cool: shim skewers might not look the best. What about steel salsa's best boutique skewer IMO. MKS tug nuts are nice and neat too.

I have gone for Halo bolt-up skewers and a salsa tug...not my favourite item...but I'll have a go. MKS are nice agree.

So...just need some bars now.....risers :D

Edit...before I get a wise comment ;) ...all I need to buy are some bars...everything else on it's way
