Does anyone have any opinions or experiences with this IMTOS thru axels?
To me they look very interesting in terms of specifications.

I'm thinking of getting a pair, the design is tempting as it's universal and would work if at some point I get a new frame. You can get them for about 160€ now on Aliexpress. Has anyone got them yet?

I'm waiting for mine, to the Avenger Shuttle SL. I have already quite light ~38g, but that one will be even lighter  8) I also ordered a bottle cages, but their project, quite fancy. I will provide an update and some unboxing probably.

Nice, can you post the measurements too, I'm curious what's the adjusted max / min length. My stock thru axles are 67g so a bit more weight to loose, those 7g bottle cages are a bit too extreme for me.

Sure, not a problem! I have some light from Ali already, not bad in general.

That design of threading the end cap in place has been used for long time in cargo axles I read and it's worked fine. But ofcourse the axles have been metal.

I need them for a Canyon Endurace CF SLX Disc that I'm trying to get under 6.5kg and has 1.0 thread pitch. Being able to transfer the axles to my future frame whatever thread pitch or length it has sounds great as 1.0 thread pitch is a dead end.

Supposedly with the Overfast is safer to use a wrench on both sides.
I've been very happy with the chaser ti, they were under $100 usd pre tariff, and aside from needing an 8mm wrench they've been flawless.

You can see in the photos that adapters with 1.0 / 1.5 / 1.75 thread pitches are included. I asked the manufacturer and they told me that this set fits any frame.

Oh, ok. I thought it's just different colors to match your frame. Good to know. Added to the cart for future :D

So that thread is just screwed onto the axle? I dunno man, don’t trust this.
