[RBW] QR question
So my nice new atlas wheel came today from its long journey, finally. Get the cassette installed, go to offer it up. where is the QR? None in the box, none on the wheel. Was I over stepping in assuming that a Rich built wheel for almost $300 would come with a skewer??? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

[RBW] QR question
What hub did you get? On the hubs page, there are no skewers photographed with hubs. Looks like the Shimanos state that no skewer is included, other hubs don't say one way or the other. Not sure what the built wheel would include though. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

I agree that a new wheelset should come with skewers. Perhaps they were assuming that, with an expensive wheelset, you would want to choose your own? P.S. Do you have any Grey Poupon?

Re: [RBW] QR question
A hub, rim and spokes are all separate parts which must be sold together in order for Rich to build a wheel and send it to you. A cassette, skewers and tires/tubes are necessary to finish getting that wheel on your bike and riding, but are not an integral part of the wheel build. I would not assume any non-integral parts to be part of the deal. Joe "what's the deal" Bernard Vallejo, CA.

Re: [RBW] QR question
While i would overall agree that skewers should not be automatically assumed when a wheel is ordered, if they are not then that should be pointed out to avoid situations like this. Now if it's just an honest mistake and they were left out of the box, well we're all human and sometimes things like that happen, get on the bike and get an ice-cream cone and be thankful you have such worries!

Re: [RBW] QR question
Can't ride my bike, no skewer. Working all day today so can't just go to lbs to get one, they are closed tomorrow. I work 60 hours a week and really only get to ride at night so will just wind up ordering one on ebay and not be able to ride for 5 days. But I should get some ice cream right?

Maybe you can buy one from a big-box sporting goods store that has Sunday hours? Not sure what they have where you live.

Re: [RBW] QR question
As someone who lives in a fairly remote place and thus has to order most things, I can certainly relate to the frustration when something arrives broken, wrong, missing parts, etc. It is almost never a case of running out to a local store to make it right. It involves phone calls and return shipping and (WORST OF ALL) more waiting. Obviously the OP is in a situation where he can't just run out to get a QR so that magnifies the frustration of things not showing up as expected. Yes, I think the frustration was expressed a little more crudely than necessary, but I also think we should cut the guy some slack. He paid for something and waited and when it showed up it was not what he expected. These things do happen of course and you just need to deal with them without losing your cool. He wanted to ride and couldn't and it doesn't sound like he has a ton of free time to just ride whenever. Peter, I am sorry your wheel didn't arrive as expected. That sucks and must be super disappointing. Call Riv and see what they say. In my experience they will take care if it and be more sorry about it than you. They are great people and will make it right. Hang in there it will get resolved. Cheers, Chris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Re: [RBW] QR question
Thanks for the kind words, I try to keep my cool at all times but was so bummed to miss a beautiful weekend riding since its just been super hectic at work lately and being out in the woods here the lack of a good LBS sucks. My new local is closed at 2 on Saturday all day sunday Monday and Tuesday, its a great little operation but finding the time in my schedule to get out there is impossible. Thanks for the reply Grant, sorry if I was inelegant, its unfortunately my nature, no amount of smacks to the back of the head from my mom will change me it seems. I did tear apart the spare parts bin looking for a skewer tonight and all I came up with was a couple of janky looking steel front skewers and I need a rear 135mm. I have some time tomorrow and will call up RBW and work it out. (I never know whether to directly respond to you-grant and RBW employees on the list or not so will just call). If they could send along a Hermes handbag as well that would make my wife happy too, hahaha.

Re: [RBW] QR question
QR Skewers cost money. Even basic skewers are over $20.00. If you did not order a set with your wheels you cannot expect to get them.
