A mate that we are meeting up with for the weekend has arrived in Wales and realised she's forgotten the rear bolt through axle for her YT Capra carbon.
I've got a couple of different axles that I can take with me later when we head off but have no idea if either of them will fit.
Can anyone tell me what pitch the thread is or take a pic of their axle?
Or does anyone know where she can get an axle near to Ceod y Brenin.
She's tried a Santacruz axle and the thread is wrong.

Edit
Ignore the bit about the Santcruz axle I read the text wrong.

I will post a pic of the axle needed in an hour or so. I had my YT capra stolen a few weeks ago from my car but the clever dicks forgot the axle..still in the back of the car..

from a 2015 CF capra - pitch thread looks to be 1mm from my best measurement. Here is a pic of my axle. Total length from the end of the spacer is 161mm, thread length is 15mm

hope that helps

^seconf that.. measurements are the same as mine. I got a replacement DT Swiss one from CRC. Maybe able to get in a Local BS. Would say you could have this one but if you need it for the weekend it's no use unless you live in Harrogate...

That's brilliant thanks very much.

Looks like the axle Two Wheels in Stourbridge have just lent me will fit perfectly.
Someones going to be very happy. 😀

Thanks for the kind offers but I think we're sorted now.

That axle in the photo looks like it's the syntace x12 compatible one. So any x12 axle should fit.
