I heard that skewers have a large effect on wheel stiffness (as far as the wheel flexing into the brakepads) and that cheap or weak skewers lead to a lot of brake rub and it is best to stay with steel skewers if that is a concern. Is this a problem with the lightweight KCNC's? I weigh 190 so I am no lightweight.
