Surly Rear Thru-Axle
Best durable replacement for riders seeking ultimate frame security and simplicity.
This bolted axle prioritizes a clean, low-profile aesthetic that stays out of the way on technical trails. While you sacrifice the quick-release convenience of a lever, you gain a rock-solid, reliable connection that handles the abuse of long-distance bikepacking and aggressive off-road riding with ease.
