Well, for the 2nd time in as many years I've forgotten to undo the pinch bolts on my fox 36 forks and almost rounded off the hex bolt head from the axle, it works but only just.
A fox 15mm bolt through axle replacement is pretty pricey, does anyone know if you can get other brands as a replacement. One up and brand X seem to do one but it doesn't look the same shape as my one and says it's for kabolt type forks which I don't think mine is.

My fork is a 2016 fox 36 if that's any help?
Cheers

The oneip/kabolt stye are for the non-pinch bolt lowers, have a oneup on my 34s

I think you're stuck with a Fox one for 2016 36s, I have a set of those also, the axle is very different, it's stepped down for 15mm

Rose bikes to the rescue with a genuine fox axle discounted to under 20 quid plus 9 quid postage. Much cheaper than 60 quid from anywhere else I could find.
