After extensive mountain biking experience with traditional thru-axles featuring cumbersome handles prone to hitting trail obstacles, we developed a superior solution. Our Lightning Bolt-On thru axles provide a premium, streamlined, and lightweight alternative to bulky handles. They come in various sizes compatible with front and rear wheels across all types of thru-axle bikes.

Lightning sets a new standard. Our front and rear Lightning Bolt-On axles deliver a stronger, more durable, and lighter alternative to stock thru-axles with a sleek, low-profile design that prevents handle strikes on trails. Engineered with an aerodynamic shape and internally bored to reduce weight without sacrificing strength, these axles offer effortless installation using a standard 6 mm hex wrench. Crafted in the USA with aerospace-grade materials and precision CNC machining, they ensure superior tolerances and a secure fit that won’t loosen during rides.

KEY FEATURES
  • The diameter of this axle is 12 mm and the true length of the axle shaft is 178 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 12×148 hub does not equal a 148 mm long axle.
  • This axle has a 1.5 mm thread pitch.
  • Weight: 42 grams
  • The axle is precision CNC machined in the USA from 7075 aluminum and hard anodized for rugged durability. Our axles are built to the tightest standards in the industry.
  • No special tools required. Design allows for installation or wheel removal using your standard 6mm hex wrench.
  • Designed, built and quality tested in the USA. Proven around the world.
