Specification

  • This Robert Axle thru axle for FollowMe Tandem Coupling replaces your stock 12 mm thru axle.
  • The true length of the axle shaft is 178 mm but can be shortened using the included 6 mm or 3 mm spacer. This allows for axle lengths of 178, 175, 172, or 169 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.
  • The axle shaft and axle end are precision CNC machined.
  • The axle shaft is 7075 aluminum and hard black anodized for rugged durability.
  • The axle ends are stainless steel, which allow for mounting of the FollowMe Tandem.
  • No special tools are required. Design allows for installation or wheel removal using your standard 5mm hex wrench.
  • Please note: This axle does not come with the FollowMe Tandem Coupling hardware. You will need to use the hardware that came with your FollowMe.
  • Designed, built and quality tested in the USA. Proven around the world.

    I haven’t been able to get this on the bike yet b/c the bike is backordered, but these guys were super helpful in getting the right thing selected.

  2. David Lee (verified owner)

    We thought we would have to stop using our Follow-Me when we upgraded our mountain bikes, so I was happy to find this website! It was very easy to select the exact size we needed, and I especially liked that it made you confirm the bike make and model at checkout. The adapter looks very professionally made and fits perfectly on our bikes.
