Anyone know if this is possible as my qr on the ss keeps moving. Also if so what would I need and how do you do it. Not much to ask I know ๐Ÿ˜‰ thanks

I can't see why you couldn't convert it. All you would need is a longer solid axle of the same thread and a couple of track nuts to suit.

Use the bolt up versions on my commuter as it means I don't need to secure the wheels, no problems so far and they come in all sorts of colours so you can add a bit of bling.

Cheers chaps might give them a go. I was a bit concerned with the crc reviews of snapping rods but worth a shot for that price ๐Ÿ˜‰
