    Hello all,

    Little new to MTB (coming from road bikes) and I’m a little confused with hub sizes.

    I have myself an On One 26″ Inbred frame with 135mm horizontal drop-outs as well as some 26″ On One forks.

    I’m looking to buy some wheels but not too sure what ones will fit.

    Am I correct in thinking that for the back any 26″ 135mm wheel will do, which all look to be quick release so will probably get some chain tugs?

    And for the front wheel the drop-out looks to be 10mm in size, but a lot of front wheels look to be 12mm or 15mm diameter. Thus my confusion!

    Sorry for asking such a dumb question!

    The wheels you will need going on your info will be what is known as standard qr wheels….any mtb wheels that have normal quick release levers(like the ones you have on your road bike)
    If the wheels arent listed as normal qr then they should state whether they are
    12×135 rear
    12×142 rear
    12×148 rear (new standard)
    12×150 rear (DH spacing)
    15mm front hub
    20mm front hub…..sizes denote the diameter of the axle
    Or the new size in front hubs @15x110mm spacing.

    That’s great, thank you very much.

    All my road bikes are single speed with threaded axles so I didn’t have anything else to go on.

    Thanks again, just about to order some wheels. Appreciate the help.
