    Hey everyone! Didn't want to start a whole new thread for this question but... is there any real difference between the rear skewers that come with trainers and the rear skewers that come with your bike in terms of keeping the wheel on? I've been switching back to the original one when I hit the road but it occurred to me today that they are basically the same... thoughts? TIA!
    Life goes by pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, and do whatever you want all the time, you could miss it.

    The skewer for the trainer is extra chuffy to deal with the extra load. You don't want to put the OEM skewer onto the trainer. I think it's okay the other way around? - not sure about that though.
