My son's Mondraker foxy carbon r (2015) seemed to have the wrong through axle fitted when I bought it. It appeared to be too long so maybe a boost axle on a non-boost frame, as it would not tighten up without bottoming out on leaving play.
No problem, I had a build for myself I'd yet to get to which had a syntace axle which seemed to fit perfectly.
I now need to replace that as I will be doing my build next.
So what axle do I need for either replacing the one on the foxy, or the bike I'm building next, a transition patrol from around 2015 too I believe.
I'm struggling to find info on the thread pitch for either bike, which is the vital ingredient to buying the correct axle.
Anyone know what pitch is needed? The original Mondraker axle was a DT swiss from what I've found, but they are available in different thread pitches. I think the syntace is only available in 1.0. while this may answer the question, I am not sure that the syntace is a perfect fit as while it does screw in and tighten up, it can work it's way loose. That said, there are reports of that with the original axle so I'm not sure.
Anyone have the magic answer?
