    Superstar Components, Chris King, DT Swiss, Shimano. All worth a gander.

    Oh and Maxle is a trade name for Sram's through axle systems – which is 20mm at the front and 10 or 12mm at the rear. The 15mm through axle is Fox's standard and as far as I know un-named. Not being smuggly pedantic but if you phone a shop to ask for a Maxle compatible front hub you'll probably either get a 20mm one or confusion from the shop saying Maxle don't do a 15mm.

    oh, cheers mk1fan.i have RS rebas with a maxle front so it must be a 20mm then.
    so can you get a 20mm to q/r convertable one? i didnt think shimano did a convertable one?

    Halo do one. 20mm/QR as standard but you can get 15mm adaptors as well.

    I think the ones (except Shimano) I listed produce hubs that can be 'easily' switched between qr, 15mm and 20mm. Shimano's hubs need a bit more work on them to convert.
