I have one of these stands

but now have a 20mm hub coming that doesn't have QR adapters.
Any ideas how I could bodge something up to use the stand.
Failing that its an upside down bike and I'll use the forks and some cable ties.
How about a couple of washers & a qr skewer through ctr of axle?
you could just "hang" the wheel off the QR skewer, or maybe get some bits of wood/plaggy/whatever that are the right diameter to fit, drill centres and shove 'em into each side. (If your hub has no central "tube" for the axle you might get some tubing to go through first and then pack that)

+1. If you look at the park tool TS2 extension kit, its just a couple of curved washers that press into the sides of the bolt thru axle. I would imagine that a qr and a couple of [url= http://www.giggear.co.uk/p/Gibraltar-SC16551-Hi-Hat-Seat-Washer/ ]hi hat washers[/url] (available from Drum shops) might do the job????

Hmmmm, £12 delivered.... Not bad but I might try my imagination and see what's about in the tool box first.
rear QR, couple of big washers.
QR -> stand -> washer -> wheel -> washer -> QR nut
the axle doesn;t have to be central on the QR for the truing to work, it just needs to be held so that it doesn't move when spinning
I got a set of 15 & 20mm from this guy on fleebay..

good quailty and fast delivery from the states.
Found these in my tool box, from a superstar hub so it could be QR or 20mm
guess they'll fit into the 20mm axel bit of my new hub.
