I’m about to replace my QR skewers. My fork has 100mm spacing and my rear frame has 135mm spacing. As long as I get the skewers for such spacing, they should fit right?

[@snorttroll4379]

Where does the 9mm get into the picture?

[@BikeTeacher]

The hole dimeter of the hub, where the skewer slides through.

That's good, or else you'll probably have skewered someone else's ankles.

The Playlist skewers and thru axles show the different parts of the skewer and springs.
