I got my Haven Carbons via the aussie importer. Apparently, they only had front wheels with qr15 hubs in stock. So I tried to buy a set of qr15 SID XX World Cup forks but Monza didn't have any at that time. So Apollo pulled the 9mm qr axle bits out of a Haven Aluminium front wheel and swapped it over for me. Pretty good service I thought.
I'm running them on my carbon hardtail. Slight overkill but they seem bomb proof, are light enough to race, super stiff and I reckon they look cool. My first race on them was the Otway Odyssey. They were great peace of mind on those steep, slick, rutted decents where I knew they could handle whatever came along. I wouldn't have been so confident in my Podium MMX wheelset. I didn't hold back either, managed to bend the lowers on my forks...looks like I will make the switch to qr15 when I can anyway.
