Hi,

Anyone know where I can buy Bontrager skewers ? I can't even find them on Bontrager's website, and can you get them in red ?

Simon.

    any particular reason why bontrager?
    Got a Trek EX (2008) and it comes with a black Bontrager front skewer and rear has some special skewer for the ABP braking in red, so I wanted a red one to match. Just being picky :lol: pretty sure a normal skewers don't fit the back other wise I would just buy a pair of Salsa's, but I can't find anywhere that sells Salsa one's single. Could put a red Hope one on the front but keep reading bad things about the Hope skewers. :?

    Thats was why I was asking if I could just buy a front Bontrager in red.

    Nothing wrong with Hope Skewers, I have 2 sets, one 4 years old, never had any issues at all with them, the other set is only 3 months old, so far so good, no problems either.

    Cant go wrong with Deore in my book - enclosed cam, with a superior mechanism to its rivals.
