Am I right in thinking a 10mm thru axel will fit my 2008 Mojo frame and Hope pro2 hub?

What's the best type the bolt up or QR type.

All recommendations and advice welcome.

Yep, 10mm fits into standard dropouts and Hope do converters for the Pro 2.

I liked bolt-up in mine... Not sure if it's as stiff as a big axle, I couldn't really tell but it's lighter and I liked the multiple points of failure. The 10mm Superstar QR worked well in another bike but was a bit chunky for my tastes (the DT Swiss thing went back on warranty less than a day after it arrived, they didn't need to ask how it failed)

I like the Hope Pro2 bolt-up conversion. Looks nice & neat also.

Bolt-up... Only really one choice surely, for Hope?

I've got the alu handled DT Swiss 10mm QR axle. Also had the plastic handled version previously. Not had a problem with either.
