ah. and for those of us who are visuals here is a link someone else somewhere posted. It will give you a clear picture of what can happen with the skewer.

When my husband saw our new Specialized Crux at the shop (ordered but not picked up yet), he wondered why the skewer was on the other side. Now he probably has part of his question answered.

putting it opposite the disc on the front and a bolt-on skewer on back makes sense to me or just get a skewer that can't interfere with the disc....in any case this is a good reminder to look at your skewers before you ride off....

Yeah, I never thought about it, but my thru-axle Mudhoney was a good choice for this reason, among others.
