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.

Specification:
- The diameter of this axle is 12mm and the true length of the axle shaft is 167mm. Please note: Thru-axle lengths do not equal hub standards. An axle has to be longer than the hub to fit in the frame. A 12x142 hub does not equal a 142mm long axle.
- This axle has a 1.75mm thread pitch.
- Weight: 42 grams
- 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 6mm hex wrench.
- Designed, built and quality tested in the USA. Proven around the world.

I recommend this product
Let's be clear. This is a bolt. It's a very nice bolt and fits perfectly but it's still "Just" a bolt.
It costs the same as a MAXLE which includes a QR lever and therefore doesn't need any tools when you want to remove your wheel.
On the other hand this rather beautifullly made bolt doesn't have the stupid QR made of cheese that a MAXLE has, so if you snap your MAXLE you may as well buy one of these for the same price as a replacement and tell yourself it's lighter and you carry a 5mm allen in your kit anyway. Don't you? (You'd better).

So, yes. It's a very useful bolt and rather nicely made. This one is mine, now - and I can't ride without it.
