Short of Superstar (out of stock on 10mm versions) and hideously expensive DT RWS ones, is anyone making 9mm front/10mm rear thru qr axles these days?

Getting some new cyclocross disk wheels and just wondering if I should order with 9mm adaptors or std qr fittings. Alas no 15mm thru axles on cx forks/frames yet....

nc-17 do 10mm rear ones on some german sites i think

but I snapped mine over tightening it, SS ones are tougher but heavier

despite unbelievers like watsontony they help stiffen up frames and more noticeable the harder you ride

The dt ones do up much tighter than the ss ones, so will be stiffer, so probably worth some of the extra expense.
