• Now improved and updated with Torx T25 head; high-quality T25 wrench included.
• Bolt-on Aero Skewers save 3-4 Watts per set
• Simple, elegant, aerodynamic design
• All-titanium construction
• Dual orientation locks protect your fork
• Works with standard road hubs (100mm front spacing, 130/131mm rear spacing)
• Not compatible with thru-axle hubs or disc brake hubs
• 45g per pair, saves over 100g compared to standard skewers.
• Compatible with a dropout outer face stance width of up to 117mm (front) or 152mm (rear), measured with a wheel in place. Most tri, tt, and road bikes have no problem, it is mostly a concern for some specialty aftermarket forks with extra-thick dropouts (generally, larger than 6mm thick).
