Strengths: Light weight. Cool looking and easy to use. Color choice.Weaknesses: Not sure if I would use them on a mountain bike... Would prefer stainless rod up front. I'm using it on my roadbike, a Spec. Ruby Expert.Bottom Line: I guess if you have a rigid MTB it's ok, but I would still prefer stainless up front. It closes and opens by unscrewing and it's easy to do and fast. So much easier than a traditional QR as I have carpal tunnel and pressing in with my hand is painful. However, I keep thinking that it would be easy for something like a trailside branch to spin them loose. Maybe I'm worrying too much. On the road bike they are awesome and don't cost an arm and a leg considering how light they are. On the MTB I use Salsa stainless.

Strengths: Light, easy to use, looksWeaknesses: None so farBottom Line: Excellent skewers, really light and easy to use. No need to fiddle with a cam then wind them off until you can get them past the dropouts, it's just one easy move - unwind the lever then twiddle the other end until it fits past the dropout.
Great design and well made - in England!
