🚴 Enhanced Performance with Kinetic Traxle Fine T-2100: Unleash Your Cycling Potential Review

The length of the axle and included spacers took a few tries to get it right. The instructions could have been a bit more helpful, but overall assembly wasn't too difficult. The fit and finish (apart from the length) was great. I had an issue using it with my Minoura LST9200 trainer due to the overall axle length. I had to go back, move the spacers and shorten the axle by about .375". I could make it work without shortening the axle, but the bike tire would not be centered on the drive wheel.

The axle fits my Specialized bike perfectly. However, the instructions state that the threads must not protrude beyond the end of the nut. If I do that, the axle will be too wide to fit in my machine, even if the machine is set to be as wide as possible. I assembled it with the threads sticking out and now it fits my sneaker. Kinetic needs to make a shorter version of this axle. Also, they should put washers between the outside of the frame and the bolt head and nut to prevent paint damage. I…

2018 Specialized Roubaix Comp. I used Kinetic Traxle T-2100 fine pitch (1.0m pitch) 12mm x 142mm 105645. I removed the existing axle and replaced it with a Traxle, using the included cone washer on the drive side and the flat washer on the disc brake side. Fits perfectly and is centrally located. It took 5 minutes. I was thinking of going to a machine shop and building my own but estimated 2 1/2 hours for the machines, cost of aluminum, buying a faucet and travel time to get everything I need…

Works perfectly with Cannondale Synapse Disc 2020. The local bike shop charged $60 for it. If you have a 142.5 hub with 12mm x 1.0 fine thread, this is exactly what you need to adapt the thru axle to your machine. Sure, it's a bit pricey for an aluminum rod with a thread on one end, but it's well designed and works as intended. The tapered spacer fits perfectly on the non-derailleur side of the frame and prevents your expensive carbon fiber from being crushed or damaged. Also, it's durable…

When I first needed a thru-axle adapter for my Specialized Roubaix, I skipped the Kinetic price and went for a competitive half-price version. resulted in imperfect alignment between the machine mounts and the axle. Probably nothing special in practice, but it looked awkward, like a cow on a crutch. Eventually, the tip of the small spindle that connected the machine's drive coupling to the axle broke off. Again, it's probably not a big deal, but for the price I didn't risk my safety or that of…

When I opened the box I immediately saw and felt the excellent quality of this product. However, it initially proved frustrating when I tried to install it and it didn't seem to fit. I then used my calipers to measure the Traxle, my bike's thru-axle, and the inside diameter of my rear dropouts/wheel and that seemed to confirm my frustration. Then I called Kinetic and they suggested I try installing Traxle in the wheel and dropouts. separately. And it goes with both! So it turned out to be…
