Chaser Sports Superlight Specialized Titanium Thru Axle Kit
Premium, ultra-lightweight titanium thru-axles meticulously engineered exclusively for disc-brake Specialized and S-WORKS framesets. Dropping static weight by roughly 50% compared to even the specialized "lightweight" stock axles, this system integrates an innovative aerodynamic cap design to eliminate unsightly exposed axle heads, ensuring a completely flush, race-ready profile.

Weight Optimisation Table
By replacing stock factory steel or heavy alloy thru-axles with the Chaser Titanium configuration, riders can shed substantial dead weight from the absolute furthest points of the bike frame:
| Component Set | Standard Factory Set Weight | Chaser Sports Titanium Weight | Average Mass Savings |
| Specialized Front & Rear Axles | ~70g+ | ~33g – 36.9g (Pair) | ~50% Lighter |
Elite AB-5 Titanium Metallurgy
Chaser Sports utilises premium TC11 titanium alloy (comprising a Ti-6Al-3.5Mo-1.5Zr-0.3Si matrix, also classified as AB-5). This advanced formulation delivers exceptionally high tensile strength that outperforms standard Grade 5 titanium, handling high-torque loads with absolute stability.
Complementing the titanium shafts are lightweight, high-strength 7075 aluminium alloy collars. Every piece undergoes meticulous independent design modelling and multiple screening tests before receiving a high-polish and post-oxidation anodised colour treatment.
Aero Cap Integration & Hex Socket Engineering
To fully optimise airflow over open dropouts, the kit features carbon-textured aero caps that snap into place to cleanly conceal the axle heads. Additionally, the axle core incorporates a highly practical double-sided 8mm hexagon socket. This dual tool-slot design allows the axle to be unthreaded, serviced, or adjusted easily from either side of the fork blade or chainstay.
Rigid Frame Compatibility
This thru-axle set is custom-moulded with precise thread lengths and pitches tailored exclusively for Specialized and S-WORKS disc brake road, gravel, and cyclocross models:
