Title: Front and Rear wheel axle locks
Post by: JamesAC on April 19, 2022, 01:13:55 PM
I just purchased a RadRover 6 Plus and am interested in locking both the front and rear axles.  Can anybody recommend specific manufacture's name and part numbers for products that will work?  I keep running into dead ends.

Not sure how you're going to lock the rear wheel? I have a Rover StepThrough and it has 18mm nuts on the axles. Does the new one have a QR?

For the front, I went with a Hexlox 135mm skewer (they list it being for rear wheels). Also got a small Hexlox + replacement bolt for the seatpost clamp.

I know this will be a little off subject but I have a RADExpand 5.  I would be interested in Front Wheel Lock.  How did you know which PinHead Lock to get for your RadRover 6?
