I just received some ICAN wheels which were meant to arrive with QR adapters but haven’t.
Support are bring useless and saying they are standard Novatec hubs and adapter should be easy to find.
They are center lock and I’m looking to migrate them over to QR so I can use them on my CAADX.
I’m unsure which adapter I need, would anyone be able to point me in the right direction?
Thanks

You will need QR side caps for the hub. If you search novatec hub qr side caps it comes up with some. I guess you will need to know what hub code is IE d411sb

There are a few options here. If the hub caps are replaceable and the hub manufacturer has caps for QR, then that’s one option. The other one is getting a generic thru-axle to QR adapter like so: [https://www.bike24.com/p2321810.html](https://www.bike24.com/p2321810.html)
If ICAN was supposed to send you the end caps, keep hounding them. info@icanwheels.com +86 18129814220
End caps are not universally compatible parts, they fit specific hubs. ICAN needs to give you the exact model number for each of your hubs for you to be able to find the right end caps for them. What they should actually do is express ship the end caps to you for free, but the least they can do is give you the info you need.
