this may sound like a silly question, but what size q/r does my camver have?

it has a funky dt swiss qr that is confusing me a little. im sure its a 9mm but if anyone could confirm......

thanks in advance

    well the DT RWS come in two sizes. 5mm and 9mm. will your wheel stay in the fork without the Qr? if no then it is the 9mm axle.

    a 9mm through hub. or a qr hub with a standard qr.

    thank you. i was lazy though, a quick 20 minute google has shown the only reasonable hub is a hope pro evo with conversion kit.

    looks like i can do the rear as well with a 10mm qr! that will tighten things up a little :)
