Quick release. More modern bikes are now thru axle but honest QR is fine. It worked for decades and still does.

for less than a thousand bucks this is a great entry level FS bike. can't believe all the complaints over a QR in the rear lol. what are the expectations here? I have one from 2020 and ride a ton of NorCal parks in it with new Continental tires. this thing is awesome for a beginner to intermediate rider getting into mtb. everything is upgradable except for the rear shock which is the real limiting factor.

Reading the specs shows it also has a QR hub in the rear like the Stance 1
I'm middle aged and just got back into biking - just daily cruises on paved trail, currently using a 15 year old Granny Cruiser Cannondale bike that has like 8 gears via one handlebars.I don't need a pro bike. I doubt I'll ever go offroading or anything. I don't one to get one of those junky Walmart deals, but I'm not sure I need a $1k bike either.What do you think?

You don't want a full suspension bike for puttering around town. Check out this one and similar bikes from other brands like Trek and Specialized.

Not sure what are you talking about. How do you put M12 axle into small 9mm not threaded hole? You can't change from QR to TR, bike frame doesn't support it. You can add QR adapters to TAwheel to use those on QR frame but it is pointless unless you've got some free TA wheels.

Ozark Trail FS.2 or FS.3 full suspension are better bikes than this Smilie

Yeah, unless I'm missing something, jimx200 is mistaken. You can't convert a frame from QR to TA for the rear wheel unless the frame has replaceable rear dropouts. This frame does not.
On the other hand, while I prefer TA to QR, QR is still quite serviceable for most riders. This seems like a pretty good deal to me.

If you're a new rider looking for a cross-country mountain bike that will stand up to anything but the gnarliest of rocky trails, or you just want a short travel XC bike without spending big money, this is a great deal.

All the people complaining about the rear QR skewer are way off base and don't know what they're taking about. I have broken entire frames at the chainstays without doing the slightest bit of damage to a standard QR rear hub. A frame with Boost thru axle adds a bit of stiffness to the rear triangle and the rear wheel...but this is a cross-country bike with just 130mm of front travel and 120mm of rear travel. No one will notice the difference on any terrain this bike can handle.

The Trance is a better overall deal IMHO. https://www.giant-bicycles.com/us...-29-2-2022

Well yeah, I would certainly hope so for more than double the cost

People rode QR for years without problems and the truth if the matter is most people riding this bike are not going to be riding it that hard. Nice bike for the discounted price but super entry level.
