I got a cycle ops fluid 2 trainer and it works great with my road bike. The wife and I both have hybrids with disk brakes, and the included "you must use this" skewer isn't long enough to get some meat on the threads.

I found this:
https://www.amazon.com/CycleOps-9714...for+disk+brake

listed as "one size". It's the one I have that isn't long enough. Searching for disk brake skewer didn't net anything useful (or my search foo stinks).

Help?

The Sunlite skewer specifically lists itself as 135mm spacing. I'm pretty sure that's what I have here-- even on a disc-brake wheel, there's a few threads poking out of the non-lever end when it's tightened down, so it has to be something like 150mm long overall.

^ I read on the "specs" that the supplied skewer is supposed to be 165, and still too short. I'm going to have to measure it. The "Q&A" section has this question asked a lot with no real answers. Bummer.

I just ordered the longest steel skewer I could find....170mm. Says it "fits all". We will see.
