skewer advice please

samsbike

Hi, I am hopefully geting a second set of wheels that do not have skewers. Can I simply fit the ones from my old set?

Also I have read about different sizes on mtb forums but don't understand what it all means, what does it all mean and what does it mean for road bikes?

Thanks

if the skewers are the ones you used on the bike before they'll be fine

different types of bikes (road vs. mtb for instance) can have different dropout spacings, the skewers have to be the correct length for the spacing
