I just brought some new hope quick release for my bike, front and rear. I thought they were all the same length, turns out my rear is 210mm not the 135mm ive got. Does anybody know where I can find 210mm rear quick release, Im struggling. Thanks in advance.

Hope fat bike skewer might do you.

looks like they only do 170mm. My bike is a trek fuel ex 5 2012. Does anyone else have one with a extra long skewer or is it just me.

Ah you need trek specific abp skewer. Only thing that'll fit.

KCNC do them, as do Parts of Passion, suspect some others do too, but it does need to be a Trek ABP specific one.

I'd buy a spare, mate once drove to Wales without his skewer and obviously couldn't easily source a replacement. Spare one in tool kit pretty sound idea.
