Robert Axle Project Kids Trailer Axle 160-172mm M12x1.0

Robert Axles for Kid Trailers are engineered to fit 12mm thru-axle bikes, enabling seamless connection to any hitch-mounted trailer. Compatible with a wide range of two-wheeled trailers featuring a single attachment point, including models from Thule, Chariot, Burley, Instep, and Carry Freedom. Choose our Kid Trailer axle to easily attach your trailer, making bike rides with your children more enjoyable and hassle-free. Experience the convenience of quick, secure trailer mounting and enhance your cycling adventures together.

Since 2013, our axles have supported cyclists worldwide across mountain, road, carbon, fat, and e-bike categories. Engineered to withstand the intense torque of e-bikes, they offer 3 to 4 times the strength of standard thru-axles. Featuring stainless steel ends, they ensure a secure and reliable hitch attachment. Installation and removal are fast and straightforward using a standard 5mm hex key, making them an essential upgrade for safely carrying your valuable cargo.

Our axles are not just designed in the USA, but are made here as well. They are machined by avid cyclists to the tightest standards in the industry. We safety test, to failure, every batch of axles we produce to ensure they exceed your expectations.

KEY FEATURES

• Robert Axle for Kid Trailers replaces your stock thru-axle so you can attach a child or cargo trailer to your 12 mm thru axle equipped bike.
• This axle is compatible with Burley, Carry Freedom, Chariot/Thule, Croozer, Instep, and many more hitch style trailers.
• The true length of the axle shaft is 172 mm, but can be shortened using the included spacers – a flat 5 mm spacer and a tapered 5 mm X-12 spacer. This allows for axle lengths of 162, 167, or 172 mm.
• Please note: Thru-axle lengths do not equal hub standards. An axle has to be longer than the hub to fit in the frame.
• (A 12×142(+) hub does not equal a 142mm long axle)
• This axle has a 1.0 mm thread pitch.
• The axle shaft and axle end are precision CNC machined.
• The axle shaft is 7075 aluminum and hard black anodized for rugged durability.
• The axle end is stainless steel, which allow for mounting of the hitch provided with your trailer. The threads are M10x1 (metric).
• Hardware for attachment of the hitch is included; the hitch is not.
• No special tools required. Design allows for installation or wheel removal using your standard 5mm hex wrench.
• Designed, built and quality tested in the USA. Proven around the world.
