[#5697160]

will they fit in a normal 135/QR dropout?

research would imply they would...?

anyone running this setup, and did you notice any improvement in stiffness?

They are made for 135 qr so they will fit.
Rigidity wise i did not noticed any difference but the wheel is more securely fixed.

I had them on a SS set up on a Dialled Love/Hate (normal 135qr). They worked fine, didn't notice any stiffness difference

Yep, got them on my 5 Spot. No idea if they are stiffer but at I found the cable routing to a SRAM rear mech fouled the end of a qr anyway, the lower profile fun bolt allows more clearance.

Yes, worked in my 456ti, my Enduro and now in my carbon Blur LT.

Cool looks like it'll fit. Surprised it didn't make any difference stiffness wise...?

I run the Hope equivalent, can't say I notice it stiffer.

It will definitely fit though.

Regarding if they make things stiffer...obviously it depends on how stiff the frame is in the first place. I ended up using them on an Intense Tracer and they did make a difference.

Its for a carbon h'tail so its pretty stiff already. Apparently it is a little lighter than a QR and I doubt it will take much longer to remove than a QR, will just need an allen key
