I have a set of DT Swiss 1450 xr wheels and they currently have 15mm front hubs and 9mm rear hubs. I need to convert them to QR at the front as that's all my forks take (and preferably at the rear so I don't have to take the whole axle out to remove the wheel as the 9mm fits horizontally but doesn't release from the drop out vertically).
Anyway, I have tried the DT Swiss website and just got very confused :-/ Can you buy the adaptors I need and do they have to be DT Swiss adaptors?
Thanks!

Are you sure the front is 12mm and not 15mm?
Rear won't be 9mm, may well be 10mm?Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0 -
Sorry front is 15mm. Rear is ~9 on a ruler but I guess 10 if I measured with something a little more accurate!My Website - Trail Centre info for the UK: MTB Trail Time0

They would need to be DT adapters. Not all hubs can be adapted and some that can need a complete axle assembly but others just need end caps.Transition Patrol - viewtopic.php?f=10017&t=130702350

DT swiss make a 15 to QR adaptor and there are others out there that do the job too.
