Details
After years of mountain biking with thru-axles with bulky handles that seemed to strike every trailside obstacle we needed a better option. Our Lightning Bolt-On thru axles offer the highest quality, simple, lightweight alternative to that bulky handle. Available in a range of sizes that fit both front and rear wheels on all types of thru-axle equipped bikes.

This Front thru axle is compatible with bikes that have the 12mm FOCUS R.A.T. thru axle system except the Focus Paralane 2 which uses 12x110 Boost

Please note: Robert Axle do not make a suitable replacement axle for the Paralane 2 Range.

Specification:
- This axle is compatible with bikes that have a FOCUS R.A.T. thru axle in the front fork with 12x100 front hubs.
- Weight: 39 grams, includes axle and our replacement for the RAT nut.
- The axle is precision CNC machined in the USA from 7075 aluminum and hard anodized for rugged durability. Our axles are built to the tightest standards in the industry.
- No special tools required. Design allows for installation or wheel removal using your standard 6 mm hex wrench.
- Designed, built and quality tested in the USA. Proven around the world.

Replaced front and rear axles on my Focus Paralane with these thru axles. Easy to fit. Much easier to remove and refit rear wheel now. They are pricey but replacement RAT axles cost more.

ProsEasy to fit
I had continuous problems with front wheel disc alignment on my bike. Replaced the RAT axle a number of times, even changed the wheel bearings but the problem remained. The Robert Axle Project axle is easy to fit and works well. No alignment issues since. It’s easy to remove if you have a puncture on the road, just remember to bring an Allen key. Just purchased a rear axle so that I can fit the bike to a trainer.
Brilliant replacement for the poor Focus RAT system

Conspricey
Prosstraight forward replacement
Expensive for what they are but a solid replacement for the unreliable and awkward Focus RAT system. I'd hate to be caught at the side of the road unable to get the wheel in or out following a puncture. These axles along with a 6mm allan key prevent this. Excellent service from SJS - arrived the following day
