Pro tip

This adapter is not a thru-axle — it replaces the non-drive-side nut on a solid rear axle. If your bike came with a solid axle and a nut, unscrew that nut, thread on the adapter, tighten it, and your trailer hitch mounts onto the adapter's stud. If your bike has a thru-axle instead, you need a RAP thru-axle, not an adapter.

Choose if

You want a made-in-USA, lifetime-warranty adapter.

Your bike has a thru-axle, not a solid axle with a nut — you need a RAP thru-axle, not this adapter.
Your rear axle nut is a different thread size — this adapter is thread-specific.

FAQ

How do I know if this axle fits my bike?

Check your bike manufacturer's spec sheet for rear-axle diameter, thread pitch and total length. Or unscrew your existing rear axle and read the markings. Or email fit@hitchabike.co.uk with your bike make, model and year.

Is the trailer hitch included?

No. The hitch is what comes with your trailer (BOB skewer, Croozer Click & Crooz, Thule ball hitch, etc.). This axle just gives that hitch a mounting point on your bike.

What tool do I need to install it?

A 5 mm Allen key — the same one you likely already carry.

Is there a warranty?

Yes — Robert Axle Project offer a lifetime warranty on their axles and adapters.

Where is it made?

Machined and tested in Bend, Oregon, USA.
