So, when I was researching a Miche hubbed wheel set from Velomine one thing I found was several other instances of people having the Miche QR's slip. I figured it was no big deal if I just made sure it was tight. First ride on the brand new bike I put those wheels on I had the rear slip, jam the tire, and I fell over in the middle of the intersection. Needless to say, I chucked those Miche skewers. That is the only time in all my years of riding I've had a QR skewer fail, wheels are still working great by the way.
