All Treks with quick-release front wheel and disc brakes since 1999. That's a LOT of bikes.

Still kicking.
It's a gigantic mess, not to mention these bikes are inconsistently specced with different skewers. So one will have the qr lever in question, while the other has a different style of quick release lever.

Maybe they should all be combined and linked from their original forums. And my LBS sells Trek...he says it's more of a user problem with operating them than a flaw.
I prefer regular old nuts myself.
