Rear, 36 hole. BUT - quick release is seized in the axle - either replace the axle or fight it out! Complete, but in parts.... £15 posted.

Reply on here and send me a PM, i will get back to you but it may take a day or two so don't panic. :)
 
Try putting the axle and QR in the oven for a bit.The alloy will expand at a faster rate than the steel skewer and should in theory just slip out.

Well this is the process described to me by the local wheelbuilder just today but whether he's speaking from experience or just suggesting an idea for removal i dont know.I do have a spare bulb axle with the skewer jammed in so im going to give it a try tomorrow.

The opposite of right :?

Tara-boom :oops:
 
Sorry to report it didnt work :(
The skewer moved about a millimetre and that was after 10 mins of bashing it
I had it in for about 10 mins at 200c,i think any more and you might accidentally weaken it[if not already :?]
 
Im sure you can still get them from Hope :? I have recently bought a couple of Ti-glide axles so if they still do those then it highly likely they still do Bulb axles seeing the blub is a later model.
£14 or £15 if i remember :?
