You need this!
Pros: Adjustable, Durable, Good Fit, High Quality, Rugged
"I have a Tacx Sirius Blue Soft Gel Folding Magnetic Trainer, and use this exclusively for my winter training and interval work, especially the Tabata Protocol.
The training wheels that I have come with a conventional skewer, so the need for the Tacx skewer was pretty much taken out of my hands.
The skewer itself is made to last, and does the job it was designed to do flawlessly.
It locks down my wheel without any problems, and I have, from time to time ventured out onto the streets with it in place. I have complete faith in them, even on 55 mph descents!
They are not aerodynamic, and obviously not light, but they are strong!
Not a lot else to say really, and if need be, I'd buy another one, if I needed to.
If you have a Tacx trainer, then these skewers fit without any problems. I cant speak for Minoura, CycleOps or Elite trainers, so your on your own on that one!"

"Fits the Elite Crono Mag ElastoGel turbo trainer perfectly. With this skewer the wheel is held securely and straight in the trainer. No problems at all."

"Hard to get excited by a Skewer I know, but having bought a Cycleops turbo with no Skewer I needed something tough.
It works perfectly my Fluid 2."

As skewers go..
Pros: Great Value, Good Fit
"Bought this to replace lost skewer on Tacx Swing turbo trainer. Fits solidly and reassuringly into the turbo, leaving you free from worrying about it working loose at 30mph. Can't fault, and although not lightweight can be used on the bike while out on the road."

"Eliteの固定ローラー台のクイックを紛失したため、代わりになるかとこちらを購入しました。
最初はMINOURAのものを使用したのですが、少しきつい感じだったので、こちらを買いなおしました。
ぐらつきもなく、全く問題なく使用できました。

Does the job
Pros: Durable, Good Fit
"A simple and cheap addition if you have no skewers that will fit your turbo. Also saves your prized skewers being damaged.
I have an older model Cycleops which I'm sure was designed to take old style skewers and due to the lever being halfway down the body helps fit the skewer in a turbo clamp. Buying this certainly saved me a few hundred quid buying a new turbo.
I wouldnt use it for going out on the road though, but then again, that's not what it's designed for."

A great fit
Pros: Durable, High Quality, Good Fit
"Bought this for the wife. I was lazy to keep swapping my skewer so this is ideal. I have had the same item for a couple of years without problems.
it gives a good clean fit so you know the bike isn't going to slip and send you hurtling towards the garage door.

Works in an Elite Trainer too
"It's hard to be too enthusiastic about a quick release Skewer, but I was really pleased with this. I needed a spare skewer for my Elite Fluid Elastogel trainer (so that I can leave one on my bike and one on my girlfriend's.
I was concerned that a skewer designed for use with a Tacx trainer may not fit on my Elite trainer, but there was nothing to worry about. It is easy to switch over and fits the trainer well.
Not much more to say about a skewer really, It does it's job and was pretty reasonably priced.
It arrived promptly too.

Tacx Skewer
Pros: Durable, High Quality, Good Fit
"Does exactly what it says on the tin, so that I can once again put my bike back in my trainer having lost the last one.
Robust, easy to use, and solid enough fit that I know I'm not going to be wearing my lounge wall!"

Does the trick nicely
Pros: High Quality, Good Fit
"Bought one as the replacement for the one that was on my bike when it was stolen so that I can keep using my Satori turbo trainer.
Does what it's supposed to do in keeping the bike securely clamped in but looks a bit 'old school' on a carbon road bike but who cares...
