Big Thanks for the pic!!! I guess that is just they way they designed it, and that axle nut is heavy enough to carry the load of the rear stay. Seem like 190mm would have been better. Never had a through axle that doesn't thread to near the end of the nut. I wouldn't have even noticed if it...
Yes, it appears to be assembled correctly. I consulted the blue book, and the axle has 187 printed on it. That is why I was hoping to see if others are fitting the same way. The other thing I was suspecting is the wheel assembly, but if this is normal for this bike, then no point in taking...
Very Nice! I've got a stock H15 that I've had for a couple weeks now. Question for you, since you've torn into it. My rear thru-axle kept loosening, so I took it out and cleaned the threads. That said, I've noticed that it doesn't thread in as far into the left axle nut as I would expect...
187mm seems a few mm short, judging by how much of the left axle nut is not filled by the axle. It almost looks like the left chain stay is completely riding on the axle nut. Anyone else seeing this on their rise?
