For more and more bikes, a Thru-axle is the standard solution. These axles are stiff and stable, and the weight is low.
However, compared to the standard QR, it needs more time to mount and dismount, and it can be difficult to release the axle because the thread might be damaged or corroded.
The patented QR Thru axle of IDbike solves these problems: the mounting and dismounting are effortless quickly. The QRTA combines the advantages of the Thru-axle with those of the Quick release. It is best of both worlds!
