FAQs
Is this part compatible with other Shimano hubs?

Does it include the springs?
Yes, the complete assembly includes the necessary springs for the quick release.
What is the total length of the skewer?
This model has an overall length of 168 mm.
How do I know if the quick release is tight enough?
When closed, the lever should leave a temporary imprint on your palm and hold the wheel firmly in place without any lateral movement.
Can I use this on a carbon frame?

What should I do if the threads are stripped?

Troubleshooting
Lever feels loose when locked
Unflip the lever and tighten the adjustment nut on the opposite side, then try closing the lever again until firm resistance is felt.
Wheel is not centered in the frame
Loosen the quick release, ensure the axle is fully pushed into the dropouts, and re-tighten the skewer.

Clean the cam mechanism and apply a small amount of light bicycle lubricant to the pivot point.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility is restricted exclusively to Shimano FH-T670 hub models; attempting to install this on mismatched hubs may result in failure.
