I've had a search but can't find anything relevant.

I need a QR skewer for a Hope Pro II rear and the frame drop outs are THICK.

Was going to go for Hope QR skewer but was told that there used to be issues with them

Any suggestions?

shimano, even the basic deore ones are ace, or XTR is you feel the need to splash out.

Shimano, its not such an issue on the back as its stiffer and the disk is forceing the axel into the calliper, sure my forks feel stiffer with a shimano QR done up really tight though.

Could be worth having a look at Mavic
Run them on all my bikes , the locking action is lovely

shimano shimano shimano

if for some weird reason you dont want a shimano qr, you could consider swapping the internals on your ProII rear and have a 10mm bolt through.
