See size chart best in sport

My axle is 1.75x198mm so I ordered a Ballz axle 1.75x197mm. Wrong, when I received the axle it was too long. I searched the internet for information on how to measure the Ballz axis and found a table. It would be nice if the diagram was published on the Revain website. Now I have to send it back and re-order the correct axle.

Pros
  • Child seat
Cons

They are needed to attach a Coho trailer to a fat bike

I bought this Ballz thru axle to tow my Coho trailer with my fat bike. I find this item overpriced which is reflected in the star rating. Determining the correct size is complex. It's worth noting that the thru-axle is not a quick release and a 17mm wrench is required to remove the wheel. So I took a wrench that size with me in case I get a flat tire. Hope that helps.

Pros
  • Sports & Outdoors
Cons
  • Functionality

Perfect thru-axle length with some issues

This thru-axle is not 197mm long, it is much longer. 197 refers to the size of the axle lock nut. I bought this to replace a rear axle so I can attach my Burley Coho cx cargo trailer. The overall size is larger because it extends past the rear dropouts so the Burley Ballz threads and tightens on the outside of the rear dropouts. I'm concerned about the plastic the bullets are made of. I consider it an easy duty, but time will tell. So if you're reading this and trying to figure out the Burley…
