Source for 120mm quick release skewer
OK, so I am building up some wheels and the rear hub is an old school 120mm spacing. Where can I get some decent quick release skewers that will fit. Can I just cut a 130mm down? I guess if there are enough threads I could go this route, but would rather just buy the correct size. Anybody know where I can get one?

YA if you want to pay stupid prices look at this guy one skewer 150.00. NOT. I would cut a 130mm in a second before buying that, or find another beater bike that has them on it.

Stop reading my posts!

Yeah it IS stupid, but this guy is no amateur, that's Cyclart. If they price it at $150 it means there's some crazy collector in Japan that will actually pay $150 for one.
I thought you could only get prices like that for a Simplex skewer with black plastic nut...crazy!
