FAQs

What tool do I need to install these quick-releases?

You will need a separate hexagonal wrench ( Allen key) for installation and tightening.

Are these suitable for all types of bicycles?

Yes, they are designed for Road, MTB, and Urban use, provided your bicycle has standard 100 mm front and 135 mm rear hub spacing.

How heavy is the set?

The total weight for the front and rear set is approximately 78 grams.

Can anyone easily remove my wheels with these installed?

No, the lock-on design requires a specific hexagonal wrench to loosen and remove the wheels, making them resistant to quick theft.

What is the material of the quick-release skewers?

The skewers are made of durable and lightweight aluminum.

Will the color look exactly like the picture?

The color of the product may appear slightly different depending on your display settings and type.

Can I use these if my bike has disc brakes?

Yes, these quick-releases are compatible with disc brake systems as they only secure the wheel to the frame.

Troubleshooting

Quick-release lever is too loose or too tight.

Adjust the tightness using the hexagonal wrench on the lock-nut. Ensure the lever requires firm pressure to close, leaving a slight imprint on your palm, but is not impossible to close.

Wheel rattles or feels insecure.

Re-tighten the quick-release using the hexagonal wrench. Ensure the axle is correctly seated within the frame dropouts before tightening.

Difficulty installing the quick-release.

Confirm you are using the correct size (100mm front, 135mm rear) and that the skewer is inserted straight through the hub and into the frame dropouts.

Corrosion on springs.

Clean the springs with a soft cloth and consider applying a light bicycle-specific lubricant if extensive corrosion is present, ensuring no lubricant gets on the braking surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure you have a hexagonal wrench (tool not included).
  2. Open the existing quick-release lever on your wheel.
  3. Remove the old quick-release skewer.
  4. Insert the new BBB quick-release skewer through the wheel hub.
  5. For the front wheel, ensure the 100 mm axle is properly seated.
  6. For the rear wheel, ensure the 135 mm axle is properly seated.
  7. Close the quick-release lever partially to hold the skewer in place.
  8. Use the hexagonal wrench to tighten the lock-nut on the opposite side of the lever until the skewer is securely fixed. The lever should leave a slight imprint on your palm when closed firmly.

Compatibility:

This set is designed for standard bicycle hubs with 100 mm front spacing and 135 mm rear spacing. It is suitable for Road, Mountain (MTB), and Urban bicycles.

Care:

Clean the quick-release skewers periodically with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners. Ensure the springs remain free of rust and debris. Periodically check the tightness of the lock-nut, especially after significant use or exposure to harsh conditions.
