00:00Alright, if you ride mountain bikes, you already know the pain of a bent or missing through axle
00:04ruining your whole day so I went down the rabbit hole and found the best deals out there for the
00:08top 5 mountain bike fork through axles. These are real prices, real ratings, and thousands of
00:14riders can't be wrong. First up, the HEP bike through axle quick release, and honestly, this
00:20thing is a crowd favorite with nearly 5,000 sold and a 4.9 rating. It fits both 15x100 and
00:2615x110
00:27hubs, which makes it super versatile if you're running SR center forks, and the quick release
00:32design means you're not fumbling around with tools on the trail. At just $28.46, it's a little
00:39pricier than some, but that extra cash buys you reliability, and when you're bombing down a
00:43descent, that's money well spent. Next, we've got the HEP MTB road bike through axle, and get this,
00:49it's only $5.94. Yeah, you heard that right? It covers 12x142 and 148 rear setups plus 12x100 and
01:00110 front, with M12 XP 1.0 or 1.5 threading, so it works across a ton of bikes. With
01:07almost 5,000
01:08sold and a 4.9 rating, this is the budget pick that punches way above its weight. If you just
01:14need a
01:14solid spare or a replacement without breaking the bank, this is a no-brainer. Coming in third is
01:20the Zrace MTB fork through axle, and this one's built specifically for RockShox and Fox forks in
01:2515x100 and 15x110. The lever design is the standout here, it makes install and removal quick and clean,
01:33no hunting for a multi-tool mid-ride. Over 3,500 riders have grabbed one, and it holds a 4
01:39.9 rating.
01:40At $8.36, it's cheap insurance for anyone running those popular fork brands.
01:47Fourth on the list, the HEP bike fork through axle, and this one's made for the Fox SC32,
01:5234, and 36 series with 15x100 or 15x110 boost. It's ultra-light, which weight weenies are gonna
02:00love, and it's got a 4.8 rating from more than 3,500 buyers. For $9.14, you're getting a
02:07purpose-built
02:07axle that fits like a glove and shaves grams without sacrificing strength.
02:12Rounding out the top 5 is this bicycle through axle for Fox SC32, 34, and 36 forks in 15QR100 or
02:20110. It's black aluminum alloy, so it looks sharp and holds up to abuse, and it's got that trusted
02:26quick-release setup. Over 2,600 sold with a 4.8 rating, and at $10.22, it's a rock-solid
