Robert Axle Project's Lightning Bolt-On axle swaps a stock thru-axle for a lighter, lower-profile one machined from 7075 aluminium - this listing is the 12mm x 145mm x M12x1.5 front axle.

Highlights

  • 12mm diameter, 145mm length, M12x1.5 thread
  • 7075 aluminium shaft, hard-anodised finish
  • 40g - lighter than most stock axles
  • Installs or removes with a standard 6mm hex wrench, no special tools

What it's for

This is a front-position replacement axle only - Robert Axle Project states it is not designed for attaching a trailer or trainer; for those uses, see the BOB Trailer and Kid Trailer axles and trainer adapters in this range.

Compatibility & fit

Thru-axle length and thread pitch are frame-specific, and a wrong-length axle can fail to seat properly. Confirm your bike's exact axle spec on Robert Axle Project's online Axle Finder before ordering, or bring your existing axle in - the Tune workshop can measure it and fit the replacement.

Robert Axle Project's lifetime warranty covers defects in material and workmanship to the original purchaser, for the lifetime of ownership - it excludes misuse, neglect, improper installation or maintenance, accident damage and normal wear and tear. For warranty support, return the product to Tune Cycles and we'll manage the claim with Robert Axle Project's Australian distributor. This is in addition to your rights under the Australian Consumer Law, so keep your proof of purchase.
