QR hub compatible with thru axle??
I want to buy a fork that has a thru axle design but my bike uses quick release in the front. Is there any way i can use adaptors or thingys to change my quick release hub to a thru axle compatible? thanks

Some hubs can be converted from 9mm QR to 15mm TA. Others can’t. What brand and model hub do you have now?
