141mm QR. A new "standard"… just what the bike industry needed! Can you get a bike with this new 141x5mm axle width to work on the Wahoo KICKR bike trainer? This all started for me after picking up a new 2018 Salsa Fargo GX 29er, which features this new hub spacing.

I won't downplay it, or be shamed by the rest of the cycling world… I love riding fat! And not just in snow.
