I have just bought a wheel set for my commute bike. I have just realised that the front wheel uses a 9mm DT swiss thru QR axle.

My question is the new front wheel uses the standard 5mm QR skewer, can I buy/fit some sort of conversion adapter kit to install it?

Thanks.

It should fit in the same dropouts without any changes (unless I'm reading it wrong). If you prefer one system over the other then it might be possible to swap but it'll depend on the hub and it isn't that common
