I have a rear wheel with a 135x 12mm hub. I guess Ill need an axle of the same size for this. The problem is that I have a frame that is made for a standard QR. (Are 9mm or 10mm standard?) Are there any adapters out there for this problem? I tried looking, but maybe my search abilities suck.

I found this: http://aebike.com/page.cfm?action=details&PageID=30&SKU=HU1014
and this: http://www.pricepoint.com/detail/18002-295_AZOMT8-3-Parts-71-Skewers/Azonic-Momentum-Axle-12mm-X-135mm.htm

Will these work?

Thanks.

Yes.

BTW, 9mm is standard for front hollow QR axles; 10mm is standard for rear.

sweet, thanks.

Will it still be as strong as a 12mm? as opposed to a SD 10mm?
