Has anyone any experience - good or bad. My wheels and current forks are 15 Maxle, but interested in some forks which are QR, so looking to insert an adapter into the hub. Do they work or does it weaken anything? Thanks

Can't imagine it will be a problem, my 20mm Aireal Switch hub does the same thing.

I’ve got two different types. One is just end caps that push in and are held by o rings. The other is more like a short axle that goes all the way through. Both from eBay for not much money. Never had a problem with either (used with different wheels to allow cross compatibility between a few different bikes).

I have whatever insert was cheapest at CRC. Works fine, no scarier than regular hub with QR.
