Works great. Fit and thread pitch exactly as advertised to match my bike and weighs exactly the same as the QR it replaced.

Look no further! I ride a 2016 Commencal Meta V4, I am 6’5″ and weigh in at 220lbs. In 3 months I had broken 2 Sram Maxles. I needed something significantly more heavy duty. A Google search led me to the Robert Axle Project and I haven’t had a single problem since! I would highly recommend this axle for anyone looking to upgrade to something more substantial. Very happy with this purchase.
