mrrabbit, thanks for trying to make me look stupid for asking for help.
1. It's the other way around. And you're not special either. All of us at least once in the past have done the same. 2. In response to the poster trying to defend the OP - the Aerospoke has a "Support" tab with "Contact Us" option. =8-) |

Why do you want to bolt it on? Fear of getting it stolen? If so get a locking skewer like the one shown above. For most other applications a quick release skewer will be good enough.

OK thanks to everyone, got the QR from the LBS for $9, contacted the web site and told them I understand the wheel comes without the QR and the only problem I had was not knowing I would need it. They actually agreed and said they would update the site to reflect that this part would be needed should actually want to use the wheel. As for the QR, I think it looks like ass and will be getting a nut to replace it with. Thanks for all your input (even the snarky parts) this is the first bike I've built since I was about 13 and I'm 51 so I've lots to remember and even more to learn.

Better have them also include a warning that you need a tire and tube. Never known when THAT might catch somebody off guard.
