It seems that I have tightened to much beyond the torque specs the DT Swiss 142x12 axle on the rear of my 2013 5 Spot and I need a replacement.

Does anybody have any info on the thread pitch for Turner 5 Spot Frames?

Thanks.

Thanks bro...But I am not in USA and mail order will take me eternity if I place an order...would be trying my luck in LBS here in Hong Kong if they have the 1.75 pitch DT TA in stock ....

I wasn't suggesting you order it from their site (though you would be sure to get the right one). I was simply providing the information on thread pitch.

looks for a Maxle, as they have a part # that is identical to the DTSwiss we spec. The DTSwiss is special ordered for out bikes so little chance of finding it anywhere.

thanks for the reply DT

I learned a lot and posted it in this thread I created.

The red loc-tite works fine.

Anybody know the length of the axle? I know it is 142 X 12 with a 1.75 pitch but unsure of the exact length.

thru axle

174mm is the length of the bolt from under the head to the end.

There are a ton of 'bolt's that will fit.
