My non boost front Maxle QR has finally snapped but there doesn’t seem to be many available options out there apart from RaceTi thru bolts? Any suggestions.

Are you meaning 9mm through bolts for 100 QR hubs? The DT RWS is the one I use...

Brand X and Superstar both have a few replacement axles. Not sure if they do that one but worth a look.

Sorry, it’s what ever replaces the 100mm front Maxle Ultimate or thru bolt version.

No, he means a Maxle. Here's one for 40 quid (ouch)

The stealth models should work as well.

One Up worth a look?

Burgtec do one in ince colours, the OneUp version is good too. Rockshox's own Maxle Stealth also good, all of them better than the fragile, heavy, ugly QR versions, and none of them will punch a hole in your lowers in acrash

Burgtec has Allen key but at either end just in case you mulch one. Hopefully unnecessary but good to know.

Cheers Guys. Could not find any of the pricey rockshox versions, and the one above from Amazon is the previous lite (lite?) version.

Bergtec out of stock so I’ll go for the Oneup - Pity only black and red.

r2-bike.com have loads of other brands and colours - seems coloured axles are a big thing in Germany

Wolf Tooth, Shift-Up, Cruel, etc
