I got an E160 after my original Brain FutureShock fork blew out in California and it comes with a 20mm thru axel. Driving back across the country to New Jersey via Moab I had planned to install it and ride, but not a single shop in Moab or Iowa or New Jersey or in between has been able to supply me with the correct through-axle. It looks like it is an Maxle based on documentation, but shops have not been able to find it
Online I've found 20mm Maxle's for 32mm vs 35/40mm chassis. What is meant by 32mm chassis vs 35/40mm chassis? Does anyone have axel specs for the fork? The manual here just says "Maxle" with no dimensions. Is chassis the new word for dropouts as things don't "drop out" of thru axle holes?
