Deadbolt Ultralight Thru-Axles: Precision Security for Demanding Rides
Elevate your mountain bike’s performance and aesthetics with the Deadbolt Ultralight Thru-Axles. Engineered for serious trail riders and gravel adventurers seeking reliable wheel security without unnecessary weight, these axles deliver where it counts.
Crafted from premium 7000-series aluminum via precision CNC machining, they achieve remarkable lightness while maintaining exceptional strength and durability for aggressive riding on challenging terrain. The sleek 6mm flat button head design isn’t just for looks; it sits completely flush, eliminating snag points on roots or rocks and contributing to a clean, professional bike profile.
Key Advantages for Your Ride:
- Unmatched Security: Provides robust wheel retention, giving you confidence during hard cornering and rough descents.
- Significant Weight Savings: The ultralight construction shaves crucial grams – perfect for weight-conscious XC racers or bikepacking setups.
- Flawless Integration: The low-profile head ensures smooth lines and protects against accidental impacts.
- Broad Compatibility: Designed specifically to fit all current Salsa Cycles frames perfectly. For other modern mountain bike or gravel frames, please verify your frame’s thru-axle specifications (Over Locknut, Thread Pitch, Diameter) for compatibility before purchase.
- Simple Installation: Securely fasten your wheels with a standard 6mm hex wrench – a tool every rider already owns.
