    Excellent product, the fit was exact and quite of high quality. No more guessing the clamping force using a lever style through axle. I was able to use a torque wrench with the 6 mm hex head.

  2. Stephan (verified owner) –

    Stoked on this upgrade! No more bulky thru axle release handle. The Robert Axle is high quality and beautifully made. I’m very pleased with the product quality and customer service of Robert Axle.
    Rock On!

    My son lost the rear thru-axle from his 2016 Stumpy while riding around Sea Otter… not sure how that happened (???). But with a race looming the following week, we were worried about getting a replacement in time. The local Specialized dealer would have to special order & couldn’t guarantee delivery in time for the race. Then remembering having ordered a thru-axle from Robert Axle Project for my fatbike a while back, I decided to try my luck. Shipping was excellent – receiving within 3 days! As before, you can tell the thru-axle is a quality product… & I think it’s actually lighter! Thanks Robert Axle Project!!!

    Solved the issue of my QR rear thru axle on my Lynskey FS-120 loosening up. Still tight after multiple rides.

  5. Rudy Alderweireldt (verified owner) –

    Perfect product! Tool to find the right axle is very helpfull.

  6. Michael Guthrie –

    Excellent product, Great help making sure I got the correct size for my custom built Waterford.

    Here’s how:

    1. To secure your Lightning Bolt-On Axles, you’ll need one 6mm Hexlox for each axle. These include the magnetic insert for our axles which, since they are aluminum are not magnetic.
    2. Add at least one key to install and remove your Hexlox system. You will receive a key which matches the Hexlox you order. Order multiple keys if you want a spare.
    3. For other all other components, check your bike for what you want to secure. Options include Hexlox’s that fit in 4mm, 5mm and 6mm bolts, so check your bike and purchase what you need!
