Thru Axle Question

I recently purchased 2 Felt Dispatch bikes. A 7/60 and a 9/60. One for my Wife and myself. The both have "standard" quick release axles. From the specs page: Front - 100mm QR, Center Lock, and Rear - 135mm QR, Center Lock.

My question is, since the frames and forks are not Thru axle compatible, am I limited to only "standard" QR wheelsets?

Thanks in advance.

yes only hubs/wheelsets that will work on your bike will be 9mm QR

I "figured" that would be the deal. Thanks for the speedy reply.

You can buy a fork for thru axle but your frame is stuck with QR
