Anybody know of an alternative to the poxy made of tinfoil rockshox maxle 15mm jobbie ?
Alternative to Poxy Rockshox Maxle ?
DT Swiss do a 15mm front axle(100mm), but its an insane price, 60 euro on bikecomponents.de also not sure its compatible with rockshox! I had exact same problem as you and Kellyer before with a set of Revelations and it was due to the dropouts not lining up properly so the forks went back to Merlin Cycles where i got them from and Rockshox put new lowers on them..
i've sent the Maxle back to Fisher through work but it will take a week to get a replacement. I am not impressed whatsoever.
Theres nothing wrong with the threads on it..just the part that the lever rests against when removing the maxle has snapped off , so it cannot be taken out with using a pliers .

Id imagine not, I wasnt best pleased either when it happened me!
rockshox muck i went through three in 6 months and never again had to wait 5 weeks for replacements as cos rockshox are so helpful instead of giving me one and a derailuer or one of the discs i taco'd i got three usless pieces of metal considering how much they cost its insane morewood made me up one and have been happy since
Well I want something to replace it until I can get myself a pair of Fox forks ..

thats about the best alternative alright , however I think I'll just replace the whole Jobbie with a nice Fox 34mm !
I have similar ideas about a nice new Fox 34 as well! Although if you just wanted Fox 32 Sloth had a mint set for sale recently at a bargain price, not sure if hes sold them yet!!
oh no..I got myself a nice set of 34s at the Pro VIP price ! by the time I'm finished you are going to be jealous of my Zesty !! 

Any more sets floating around at a good price??
i will see what I can do !
Cool.
34 x what Richie? 140, 160? Float or talas?
all of the above !!
