⚠️ Important!

The axle length is not the same as the hub width.
A thru axle must be longer than the hub in order to fit properly in the bike frame.

Dimensions like 12×142 / 12×177 / 12×197 mm refer to the hub width, not the actual axle length. These numbers are often printed on the hub or axle, and may lead to confusion.

Note: Axle length refers to the shaft that slides through the frame and hub.
All axles in this series can be used within ±2 mm of the listed measurements.
