Seriously, you have no idea of Google, no idea bike bits come from bike shops, and you call me an ar5e? Seriously?
You have problems and issues.
IMHO of course.

Will your frame work with something else - maxle is 12mm and threaded. Std QR is 10mm.
Too high tech for my brain.

Like i didnt check google :S......... or chain reaction :S or infact bike discount. :S ..... as i always do..... i left the question open for anyone who might be selling or know of anywhere special i dont have to fork out 50 quid. i could buy a 9mm qr adapter kit for 89.99 ........not!

£50 is as cheap as you'll find.

Don't think CrossRides come with 135x12mm hubs.

So is it a syntace 12x142 or a maxle?

TBH, these come with the frame, not the wheelset. So even if you did buy a new wheel, you'd need dropouts as well (assuming you don't have another set of dropouts).

So back to the start.

Make and model and year of frame? And the wheels are?
