New fork / dynamo axle adapters?

(1/2) > >>

EdinburghFixed:
I need to replace a disc fork on one of my bikes. I'm trying to decide whether to stick with normal quick release or go to a 12mm axle. I see that shutter precision does a 12mm dynamo hub but I'm not sure if it's possible to use this on other bikes that still have QR forks with some kind of adapter.

Is anyone doing this?

I've been toying with consolidating my old road and commuter bikes into a new gravel/adventure/fad bike at some point, which would surely come with a thru axle and if that's the case I'd like to have a dynamo wheel to share, doubt you can adapt a QR wheel for any kind of thru axle, so...

Thanks for any thoughts!

https://www.halowheels.com/shop/spares/hub-spares/12mm-to-qr-thru-axle-adaptor/ was the first I found but there are bound to be others.

Are they generic? The halo one has a promising product description. I found a 15mm to QR adapter by shutter precision and wasn't sure if there was a reason I couldn't find the equivalent 12mm

EdinburghFixed:
I get that the axles into the fork/frame are a standard but read some confusing stuff about the hub 'ends' fitting into some forks but not others)
