Default NRG thin quick release

Anybody have this 1 inch quick release (also knows as FET brand)..Im looking into getting one and wanted to know if its similar to the factory length with a momo hub. I dont want my setup to be sticking out so far that i have to move my seat back. I like the way the factory setup length is. All feedback is welcome

I've got the NRG slim quick release with the slim hub cos I'm using a dished wheel. Seams like a nice bit of gear. No complaints

Heh! I gotta question too...

What shifter are you running? I know it's a dual-bend, but which one do you have?





I hate the S-H-O-R-T shifter in my ride (half the height of yours)!!!




LoL! Gotta love how digital pics bring out every speck of dust, huh?

Our cars really aren't THAT 'dirty', are they?!?!?

it's kinda hard to tell because of the plastic surrounding the hub..but it's 4 1/2 in max without the QR, and 5 1/2 with the QR...hope it helps...

Ok so i installed my stuff and it feels great, but when i try to turn the QR after pressing the button its so hard to turn. Maybe because its new.. any ideas?? but when i loosend the silver bolts it becomes easier.. but the QR is loose.
