thanks - had to use an adapter to mount thru axle fork to the carrier fork mounts - and also have another adapter to mount a lefty fork

removing the wheels can be considered a hassle - but the bikes are transported inside

double hassle when transporting the bike with the lefty because the front caliper also needs to be removed (and then reinstalled) when transporting the lefty bike with this fork mount carrier (later lefty forks featured a quick release caliper mount - but not on my bike)
I am sticking with quick release hubs and most of my bikes are rim brake.

When I bought my Lynskey, they offered conventional quick release or through axle, I went with quick release. Quite happy with that decision.
