The later ones seem to have a much smaller fitting that gets clamped in via the quick-release axle. I think there may be some other minor variations, but just trying to keep it simple for now.
Thoughts on the differences and which is "better"?
The “Classic” plastic assembly was just made for bikes without QR skewers.
