Low profile and secure

I replaced the cams on my tires as I was having trouble with loose skewers while driving. After installation I had no problems. They have a low profile and won't snag on other bike spokes when stowed.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • poorly thought out

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great unobtrusive looks and less chance of being stolen.

I love the flat look of these skewers. I used to have my bike wheels stolen and now I find it easier to lock my bike in public. You just need to be careful to keep the hex wrench if you need to take it off frequently. Luckily I don't have to dismantle the wheels very often.

Pros
  • Great construction
Cons
  • Frequency

Great quality they look stylish and sexy. My last wheels were stolen when I left my bike overnight. To be honest you can easily remove them with a right size allen wrench but not with pliers. However, I will not leave my bike outside overnight to check them out.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Works as intended

Purchased to replace the eccentric on the front wheel of a cheap Schwinn bike. The goal is to make it impossible for someone to just walk up and remove the wheel without tools. It's not for repairing expensive wheels or anything like that. I was concerned that some reviews mentioned it popped when put on. If you don't have a torque wrench, you need to be careful not to over-tighten it. If you're concerned, use some type of low-strength threadlocker.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

Get rid of the built-in tool for aesthetics. Of course.

Those look better than the obvious quick release with built in tool. I mean, who wants to be the only one at the track with the obvious sign that they're still running some old-school quick-release hubs? It takes longer to remove them as you need an Allen key to do it. Took a little longer to put on than the original with the built in tool but they look smart.

Pros
  • So far satisfied
Cons
  • Alright

Improved security over quick release

They are quickly released with an ordinary hex key which a thief may or may not have. Security is better than a quick loan spindle but not as good as having your own key. The benefit for me is that I don't have to carry around a heavy proprietary key for maintenance. I already have this allen key in my travel kit for other mounts. The tips are made of very light metal and are small. Not sure how strong they are, but no problems so far. An advantage of the cleat shape is that it fits both of myโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Updates available
