Supported Quick Releases
Brands/ models listed have been tested and qualified by Lew Racing for use on Pro VT-1 and Pro VT-1C wheel sets. Brands/ models not listed either have not been tested or do not provided sufficient compression force, strength or both. Lack of compression force from the quick release mechanism will result in significant play in the axle/ bearing/ hub assembly.
Brake Pads
All types of commercially available brake pads are acceptable for use.
Cork, carbon specific, or soft pads may produce less than acceptable results, particularly in wet conditions.
Lew Racing recommends:
Shimano Dura-Ace
