Quick Release Steering Hub

Just wondering who is using them? If so which ones have people bought, and how do the fair?

Has anyone had one detach whilst driving?

I am tempted with a BG one, or an NRG from the states (Like Works Bell) Any good?

Just not sure how reliable they are to risk my life on...

Any input or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Nick

So the moral of that story is....if you don't put them in correctly they may come off again. Always check before driving.....

Ha,

I saw this post title and thought I would get a mention, first resply!!!

Looking back on this moment nearly 2 1/2 years ago it still seems fresh, I chuffing loved that car.

I am very happy with my new car (and infact feel this car is a better option for me) now though and have nothing more to add to my OP. QR are fine just tripple check them and dont let the action become stiff.


Be safe and happy times
