I've just bought Planet-x's track/ fixie wheels. They are track bolt on wheels (with hollow axles) but for some reason they have come with quick releases.

How do I use these quick releases?

Did they not come with track nuts?
edit: check the bottom of the box for a plastic bag containing nuts etc, otherwise email them

Were they in a plastic bag, cable tied to a piece of cardboard. If so my guess is that they were put in by mistake - unless it's something new they've come up with? As you know, the axles stick out too much to use them.

They were in a plastic bag cable tied to the front wheel.

Yes, the axles seem way too long to use the quick releases with.

It just struck me as odd to get the quick releases in the box and to have the axles and track bolts drilled ready for them. I decided I was obviously doing something daft.
