Just bought a set of fancy anodized skewers, didn't cross my mind that the rear one would be for 10 and 11 speed. I need to shorten it to fit my 7 speed hub and there is not enough spare thread. Does anyone know the standard thread for a 3/16" dia skewer rod? I could go to the hardware store and start trying nuts, but I thought I'd ask first.

Are all skewers created equally?
