So just ordered a soul frame 8) (will post a build thread once i got the garden nice and tidy)

Got the spec pretty much sorted was just wondering bout these 10mm rear axles, going to be using my pro II evo / 717's and wondered what peoples thoughts were. As i understand it the 10mm QR axle (superstar or DT...) will increase stiffness but is this a good thing for a frame vaunted for its spring?

Anyone tried it and can reccomend whether its worth doing?

Cheers,

T

Can't answer this one I'm afraid but you miss out one vital piece of info......what colour is the frame?!

Depends how you view it, some seem to like spring I viewed it as being too flexy for my liking. I think that a 10mm axle should hold the wheel better in the frame, allowing the frame to spring rather than the wheel twisting, I thought it made an improvement.
