We designed the Slacker frame around the new SRAM UDH standard, which means that it utilises a Universal Derailleur Hanger and compatible axle. Rather than threading into the driveside dropout, the new axles now thread into a nut which itself is threaded into the hanger, making for a secure and precise system. The thread pitch is now much finer, meaning less chance of axles working loose due to vibrations.
It's a tooled axle so no flappy quick-release to catch on things. But unlike other axles, the 6mm non-drive side end has an encapsulated washer so the axle won't dig into your dropouts. It also has a 5mm hex opening on the drive-side end so even if your axle gets seized or rounded off, you can still remove it. Anodised black with laser-etched Airdrop graphics.
Compatible with the Airdrop Slacker and other DH 157x12mm frames that use the SRAM UDH standard.
