    Will this skewer set fit my Soma Juice 29er?

    Amazon.com: Loaded Xlite Wheel Skewer Set - Stainless Axel and Titanium Pivots (135mm Spacing): Sports & Outdoors

    I have Stan's Arch EX wheelset. It says it's a set but only mentions 135mm as sizing...what do you think?

    That will fit.

    They only mention 135mm because that is the rear spacing, which is the only one that really matters, and will be 130mm for road bikes. Your Juice is a normal MTB, so it's 135mm spacing in the rear. Fronts will almost always be 100mm, so they don't need to mention that.

    Any reason NOT to grab these over the KCNC models?

    No experience with either. I usually run Shimano skewers.

    I only use Shimano QR skewers. Work more easily and hold FAR better than any external cam skewer. The weight difference is not worth it,

    The trouble with common sense is it is no longer common
