Wheels Manufacturing Front Thru Axle

Thru-axle lengths are specific to your fork's design. You should measure your current axle from the underside of the head to the end of the threads, or check your fork manufacturer's specifications to ensure a 158mm length matches your requirements.

Yes, it is critical. The thread pitch must match your fork's dropouts exactly; if the pitch is incorrect, you will not be able to thread the axle in, or you risk damaging the threads on your fork.

This axle is designed to fit standard 15mm thru-axle hubs. However, the primary compatibility factor is your fork, not the hub, as the axle must interface correctly with the fork's threaded dropout.

This axle typically requires a standard hex key (Allen wrench) for installation and removal. Always ensure you tighten it to the torque specification recommended by your fork manufacturer to prevent it from vibrating loose.

Wheels Manufacturing components are precision-machined to high tolerances, often providing a smoother, more consistent fit than some stock hardware. It serves as a reliable, high-quality replacement if your original axle is lost, stripped, or damaged.
