Just at work so I have no tools here.

I need to know the exact size of the hole a front or rear QR needs.
I'm getting some step up adapters made to convert a QR to 10mm to allow me to build some wheels in a normal QR jig but I forgot to measure the size of the hole I will need.
Eg the inner diameter of the hole on the right that the QR goes through.

Well I learned something new today.

My hope QR adapters are hex shaped internally. Near as I can measure the hole varies from 5.2 - 5.4mm.

Is that on a bulb or xc?

That's on a Pro III. And front BTW.

Do you want a non-Hope one checked?

i believe the pro III screws together to preload the bearing. hence the hex head.
