Hi all,
I have just bought a new set of wheels which have a 142 x 12 rear hub. I have ordered a 142 chip to swop for my standard QR. Which skewer is everyone using?
🙂
Depends.
Did you go for the Shimano or DT Swiss version?
Pretty sure its the shimano version. It hasn't got a threaded end.
I use the shimano one.
I got the Shimano XTR SM-AX75 Axle with my SB66c.
It seems to work OK. It's definitely threaded at the end, though...
Has shimano axel has a threaded nut on it? The chip itself hasn't got a threaded part.
yes, the nut is secured by the chipset.
I ordered my chipset with my frame. It came with a Shimano one. The nut is compliantly held by a grub screw.
Cheers fella's I got a SLX axel 😀
