I ask because I've come to prefer nutted axles in recent years over quick release, as bearing adjustment is vastly easier, I can adjust it perfect and just put it on, whereas a QR compresses the whole axle so will then be too tight; need to leave some slack in bearings, then check after on bike, but I still get a better bearing adjust when I can turn the spindle to check adjustment, rather than rotate the rim, as the latter has vastly more leverage.
