Just wondering how good they are and if they're worth getting those oversize qr's for 9mm hubs. Ive got a wheelset with an adaptable front axle and a frork that takes a standard qr. Is it a worthwhile upgrade or not?

Been looking at the superstar one

Fitted one to the rear of my creaky Orange 5 and no more noise so it must do something. It feels more solid and I certainly noticed going from front 9mm qr to 20mm Maxle.

The benefit is the added stiffness like a thru axle but you can remove the wheel like a qr wheel.
