Struggling to find an adapter for a Focus RAT axle so that the bike can be used on a Tacx Fortius. Anyone done this of have a link to something.

So far, I can only find a supplier in the US.

The [url= https://robertaxleproject.com/shop/12x142-1-5-mm-resistance-trainer-focus-rat-bikes/ ]Robert Axle[/url] one seems to be your best bet, given it's purpose-made. You could try contacting SJS Cycles, they have some other axles by the same brand in stock, maybe they can import it from the US.

Subscribed for the same issue...
I don't think the traxle will fit. The fit guide on their site says they don't have anything to fit focus.
I think I want a cassette driven system, im assuming none of the 12*142 compatible ones will fit due to the small RAT end....
May be possible for a custom axle with a thread to poke through the RAT key end?

Give Primera Sports a call in Bournemouth 01202 775588 as they have ordered me the required parts from Tacx and Focus (waiting for it to arrive). Ask to speak with Mark as he has told me that they have ordered these for other customers as well.
