I am getting a new Cannondale Synapse with Disc Brakes. My question is, moving forward a couple years when discs become more standardized on road bikes, is it possible to go from quick release skewers to through axles? I am not sure what the difference is between the two. I have heard through axels would lead to less possible rubbing of the disc but may be more difficult to swap out?
Can anyone help me understand the difference and benefits or compromises associated with each? Is it possible to switch between the two or would you need a whole new fork, etc. ?
