Years of experience with bulky thru-axle handles hitting obstacles on trails led us to develop a superior solution. The Lightning Bolt-On thru axles deliver a lightweight, high-quality, and streamlined alternative. Engineered for simplicity and durability, they are available in various sizes to fit both front and rear wheels on all thru-axle compatible bikes. KEY FEATURES The diameter of this axle is 12 mm and the true length of the axle shaft is 168 mm. 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 12×142 hub does not equal a 142 mm long axle. This axle has a 1.5 mm thread pitch. Weight: 38 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.

Bought this to replace a faulty R.A.T axle. Works perfectly, and looks tidy. Will also be replacing my front now too.

On Robert Axle web site ,reference to make and model, sizes given and Pushys stock the axles, 2 days from placement of order very happy man, tks pushys,👍. Chinese supplied part, 2 mths delivery time and wrong lgth ,👎,😪.gt
Expertly made real quality
What a great item. Simple and light. No moving parts to break. Installs with a 6mm hex.I'll be back for the front lightning bolt
Fit is perfect. Easy to install, looks good
Very high quality and torqued up easy
Great replacement better than OEM..
I replaced the flip lever axle for added security and smoother look and this axle worked perfectly.
