Hi all,
I was trying to remove the wheel on my 09 Giant Reign and in the process managed to round out the allen-key hole on the 15mm thru axle. Eventually with the use of some unorthodox instruments I was able to remove it and have since began looking for a replacement. Forks are Fox 32 Talas RL.
Is it possible to get a replacement with a QR end to avoid this happening again? I have searched far and wide and have been unable to find one in Australia from any of the online retailers. I have called my local shop and was told that given its age (6 years??) it is an extremely difficult part to order.
The only thing I have found is this from the USA: http://www.jensonusa.com/Fox-15QR-Axle - Would this be suitable?
The length of the axle is 170mm.
Thanks
