Kabolt Axle
When seconds matter, shaving a few grams can make or break a trip to the podium. Fox Racing Shox crafts the Kabolt Axle for weight-conscious racers looking to drop that bulky QR from the front axle in order to get every last advantage on the course. The 100mm version clocks in at a claimed 40g lighter than Fox Racing Shox's standard skewer. Either size is compatible with all 15mm quick-release forks and installs in a flash with a 6mm hex wrench. As an added bonus, the Kabolt eliminates worries of catching a quick-release lever on errant rocks and branches.

It's a bolt. It's fairly light. It's orange. It comes with a washer.

New design is heavier
I just purchased the black kabolt and it doesn?t look like the picture (mine is relieved in the center). It?s noticeably heavier than the previous version 46g vs 35g. New one also doesn?t have the stainless washer. Bummer, that Fox took over and made the product worse.

Kabolt
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
Good look and fit. Makes the front end look fast and I could use some help in that department. Fastens easy with 6mm and never think about it again.
