2018 Giant TCR disc thru axle help.

[Mort]

I’m building a new Giant TCR sl disc and was wondering what my options for thru axles are. Does anyone know if I can use the DT Swiss rws plug in axles? Or maybe one of the carbon ti options?

I use the DT Swiss rws plug axles on mine

You need to confirm the length, diameter, and thread pitch of the axles you need. I wanted to use the DT Swiss RWS plug-in axles for my Hongfu FM097F build but they did not offer the right sizes for it. Carbon Ti did but I wasn't willing to pay that much for axles. TRP has a good selection now at reasonable prices, something I wish had been available when I built my bike so that I didn't have to use a mix of SRAM and Ibis axles like I currently do.

Hey MoPho, the ones I’ve found say 12x100 and 12x142 E-thru road. Is that what you’re using?

Yes, I got the ones with the removeable lever though (it now looks like they list them for MTB?)

Looks like DT Swiss has a lot more offerings now than 1.5 years ago, and they list the overall length. Measure twice, buy once

Just reviving this thread.

Has anyone found lighter options? right now I'm just looking at Carbon Ti as an alternative.
