Subject: Replacing non-quick release hub w/quick release? I have a bike mechanics question. My commuter is a crappy wal-mart bike with an old school nut&bolt rear hub configuation. I'd like to switch it out to a quick release skewer (? )? I have an extra one that came with my trainer that I don't need, so I was hoping it'd be as easy as unscrewing something and putting the quick release in its place. But after unscrewing the bolt, I was at a loss of what to do next. Is what I'm trying to do possible? Or will I need new hardware (like a new hub or something )? Would it probably just be cheaper to buy a new rear wheel? Thanks! |
