[#1424615]

Need a axle for the rear of my bike- 12x135mm hub, to be mounted in 10mm dropouts. Axle must be 185-190mm long.

Azonic make something similar to what I need but trying to clarify its long enough..

Anyone help/give me an idea of cost?

Is there enough metal to open up the dropouts? Custom machining of an axle will be fairly expensive I would have thought.

I used the azonic one to mount a 12x135 wheel in my horizontal-dropout morphine. It had the thickest dropouts known to man, and the axle was long enough. From memory it was steel though, and weighed as much as a small child.

TJ, not that simple unfortunately! Weight isn't a major issue..
