This is totally inconsequential but I don't like the skewers that came with my Atlas wheel set. It's purely cosmetic but they're just too "retro" for my palate. I want something more aesthetically contemporary. Theses are for my SH. Thanks in advance.

Fair winds,

Captain Conway

I have a pair from a Weinmann wheelset - black. Modern. Newish, as they came off my wife's 3 year old Raleigh the first year she had it. I put on locking skewers. I can email a pic or just pm me if you want them.
What do yours look like? Are they Velocity hub skewers?
I'll trade you for those if they are silver colored.

I think I want Shimano deore xt skewers.  If I buy them do you want my silver velocity skewers for $25? 

Fair winds,

Captain Conway Bennett

Thanks for the offer, Captain, but I was just looking to trade. Sorry.

Maybe someone else here will snatch them up, though.

Conway, what on earth does "aesthetically contemporary" mean to You ?   Specifically .  LoL ;)   You know . .  one's idea of bliss is anothers repulsion. 

Be specific , black or silver or combined colors XT skewers ?  And from what era , as these have been around a long time and they vary alot  !
