View Full Version : need a skewer for a trainer

Hi,

I have a touring bike with 145mm rear spacing. Does anyone have an older style skewer that would be suitable for use on a trainer (I'd be willing to pay, of course)? I know that Dimension used to make them, but not any longer, and my other skewers (DT Swiss and Salsa) don't work with my trainer. Thanks!

145mm is a standard tandem wheel spacing.

Here is one place that has them, Gear-To-Go Tandems (http://www.gtgtandems.com/parts/wheel.html)
