Afternoon,

I have been given a rear wheel that is a thru bolt type, but my bike is quick release. Is there a way a way of converting it to fit a quick release bike?

The bike is a 29er clockwork orange for info.

Any help greatly appreciated

Thanks

Its a mavic crossride.

Does the whole hub need to be changed or is there a conversion kit you can use?

Thanks

Funnily enough I just bought some crossride wheels, the axle is 12mm but you can buy end caps to convert it to almost and size & style.
