Robert Axle Project Trainer Thru-Axle
Item number: 68348
No ordinary thru-axle: the Trainer Axle from the Robert Axle Project
The Robert Axle for indoor trainers replaces your original thru-axle, which means you can mount your bike with 12 mm over locknut dimension on an at-home trainer. This thru-axle has been manufactured so precisely that it will fit just as well or better than the original. It is compatible with classic indoor trainers (not direct drive trainers) from popular brands such as Tacx or Wahoo. And the best thing: when you finish your session, just take your bike from the trainer, detach the right end of the axle and head on outside, as the Trainer Axle is also suitable for normal outdoor use. You can look forward to being in tip-top shape for the next season.
The Robert Axle Project is run by the ultimate thru-axle experts. With their help you will find the right thru-axle - for your trailer, your indoor trainer or as a light tuning part for your MTB or road bike.
To find out which thru-axle you need, you must first find out the dimensions of your current thru-axle. Often the length and the thread pitch are noted on the axle itself. If not, print this template from the Robert Axle Project (in original size, do not scale) to determine the relevant data. You can also use the configuration from the Robert Axle Project, which will help you find the correct axle using parameters such as bike brand and over locknut dimension.
