I thought v10's needed a 150mm hub... and I thought the DeeMax hub only came in 135mm.... so how is this possible?:

I'm pretty sure you can get dropouts for the v10 that are regular QR.
I'd think it would be pretty easy to make a 135mm hub into a 150mm hub with a longer axle and some rigged spacers. Aren't mavic axles 10mm x 1.0? Same as shimano.

that year V10 the QR version came with a 135mm hub I believe.

the TA one came with a 140mm or 150mm hub. (mine had a 140mm TA)

Converting a 135mm hub to 150mm would be pretty ghetto with lots of spacers for your brakes and a sh*tty chainline, but it could be done...

I didn't say I would do it, but it would be possible.
It's easy to do on a road wheel, but I don't think I would do it 15mm.

Yup. If you compare the dropouts on the older V10s between the QR and TA versions the QR ones come in some where as the TA ones are flush with the frame it seems like.

What??
The first batch of V-10 had the option of 150mm Thru Axle, 140mm w/Floating Brake, or 135 mm QR Dropouts. But the new one... I think it only comes with 150 mm.

My M3 has 135 mm dropout with QR hubs. Very convience, but the chainline is not as good as 150.
