My son has bought a 2012 Nukeproof meta and it comes with a strange set up to secure the rear wheel. The end of the hub has nut with splines and to remove the wheel you turn the nut with a adaptor to lock and unlock the wheel.
Anyhoo the little splines in the adaptor key are very worn any ideas where I can buy a new adaptor or if the wheel could be replaced with a bog standard quick realease.

Thanks in advance i cant find the adaptor keys online anywhere.

The [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/nukeproof-generator-rear-hub-3-in-1/rp-prod132460 ]3-in-1[/url] kit was new around 2015 or so. It's like a Hope hub for cap style.

If you search for 'nukeproof generator' on CRC you'll find all the parts you need. Can't post a link as it has an ampersand in it and STW doesn't seem to like them :/ Edit, note Falkirk-Mark can post ampersands. Oh well. I'll worry about it some time when I'm not at work.

Thanks for the replies folks , was up at a mates today who was sure one of these would do.[url= http://http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/dt-swiss-rws-x-12-alloy/rp-prod81163?gs=1&utm_source=google&utm_term&utm_campaign=Chain%20Reaction-UK-PLA-PLA-All-DT-SE-Shopping%20QLB%20Manufacturer%20Desktop&utm_medium=base&utm_content=mkwid ]DT Swiss[/url]
This is the standard axle for most bikes these days . Anyhoo its 7mm too long and has an entirely different thread . So i've sent a message to CRC for advice. In the mean time super glued the end part onto the axle which is working.
