Hi I have a pair of wheel off a Whyte t130, the orange ones possibly novatec, both currently thru axle but I would like to convert them over to QR. Does anyone know if its poss and if so what bits are required.
Cheers all
Yes, Through axle to QR converter axles are available

Would i have to change the end caps, currently it is boost spaced, I was hoping to reduce it to 135mm QR
Check whether the hub can shrink down via end caps only. Boost is meant to allow stronger wheels by having wider axle spacing so it may not be possible to squash it down that far.
The actual hollow axle is 125mm long, with the 2 end caps taking it to 142mm, one push on the other screws on, if push comes to shove could always file the surplus off
