The ORBEA REAR AXLE 12x169 (1.0x14) LITE is a precision-engineered thru-axle designed to securely fasten your rear wheel while maximizing stiffness and reliability. Built around the popular 12 mm standard with a 169 mm length, it is ideal for modern frames that demand a strong, lightweight connection between frame and wheel. A quality rear axle helps improve tracking through corners, enhances power transfer, and reduces unwanted flex, giving you a more direct and confident ride feel on both paved roads and rougher terrain.
This LITE version focuses on low weight without sacrificing durability, making it a smart upgrade or replacement part for performance-oriented riders. The fine thread specification (1.0x14) ensures a snug, creak-free fit when correctly matched to compatible frames. Whether you are refreshing an existing ORBEA bike or building up a new frame, this rear axle offers dependable performance, easy installation with standard tools, and long-term resistance to the elements. It is a small component that plays a big role in keeping your bike precise, safe, and ready for hard riding.
