Anyone had any problems ?
I did begin to wonder if it was me ? but after fitting Fulcrums with the Hope QRs that came with them, last week i was half way through a ride when i thought, that sounded wrong from the front end...QR was slightly loose !!
Ah well, tightened back up, wondered if i'd been playing and forgot to do it up properly.

Got the bike out this morning.. just checked the pressure in the tyres with my thumb (as you do)...ooer, rear wheels got a slight wobble ???
Fer Christs sake...the rear QR is slightly loose ???


Is it just me ? The lever's down and secure....i wonder if its the thumb nut on t'other side thats working loose.
 
I've never known a thumb nut to work loose on a skewer, but you could try a bit of silicone sealant or even one of the weaker forms of Locktite to secure it. Bit of a problem on the front if you have lawyer lips on the dropouts, but thats a good excuse to file them off.
