Active Monkey Posted December 11, 2013 Share Buying new wheelsfor my scott spark 29er.Last year I ordered a set of wheels of chain reaction cycles and when they got here they didnt fit my bike due to a way the skewer works or something like that? So what do I need to look for when buying wheels off CRC?29er - checkMTB - checkFull wheelset - check what else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Active Monkey Posted December 11, 2013 Share Oh and what does QR Rear, QR Front mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcza Posted December 11, 2013 Share QR - quick releaseTA - thru axle If you have XX1 make sure it's compatible. Have you tried local? Is it really worth getting from CRC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hennie VR Posted December 11, 2013 Share QR= Quick ReleaseTA= Through Axle Also check if the rotor is center locking or bolted to the hub. Edited December 11, 2013 by Hennie VR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kosmonooit Posted December 11, 2013 Share Some hubs are convertible between QR and TA, like Hope Caerus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

droo Posted December 11, 2013 Share Do some homework on the following standards: Front wheel - 9mm QR, 15mm through axle and 20mm through axle Rear wheel - 9mm QR and 12 x 142mm through axle Then you'll be able to identify what you need to order.

Jigghead Posted December 11, 2013 Share Chritso Willemse just made me a set of 29er wheels. They are awesome and made them to spec after I called them and chatted about what I was looking for. Also only took 1 day for delivery after they were ready. Give them a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
