If you have trouble with either quick release, take your bike to the LBS and ask them to show you how to adjust things. When my bike got new brake cables the brake QR was tough for a week or so until the cable stretched a bit, now it's easy.

I take my front wheel on and off several times a week.
Thanks for mentioning the brake release. I've shredded the little plastic sleeve, just a little, taking it on and off. That worried me but there is definitely no damage to the brake cable underneath. Perhaps it will get easier after it gets stretched a little more?

My next challenge is getting the right saddle!
