I personally do NOT like these tabs. I would estimate that I waste maybe 10-15 seconds to install the front wheel, and 5-10 seconds to remove the front wheel compared to a bike without them.

I accept that they have been deemed necessary by the granny state, but if you add up all the useless wasted time it's annoying. Not annoying enough to file them down and possibly affect the structural integrity of the front dropout, obv.

Accept it and carry on.
