Relaxle FAQs

 

Will the Relaxle fit my bike?

The Relaxle was designed to work with Curve frames and forks, but chances are it will also fit other bike brands as long as the thread and length is compatible. 

Please refer to the spec illustration found in the 'Tech Info' menu below.

Will the Relaxle make my bike faster?

Probably. But we can't guarantee it.

How much weight can I carry on a rack when using the Relaxle?

The maximum weight when using the Relaxle should not exceed 20kg. Check the tightness of the bolts regularly!

Note: This rating is for smooth roads & gravel. For anything rougher, the weight limit decreases. Use careful discretion when gauging how much weight to carry on rough gravel or off-road adventures. 

What length bolts should I use when mounting a rack?

The M5 thread starts approx. 7-9mm into the 6mm allen key interface. The thread is over 10mm deep, so we recommend using a bolt that is 16-20mm long, PLUS the thickness of the rack tab and washer. 
So if the rack tab is 5mm thick and you use a 1mm washer under the bolt head, you will need a bolt that's at least 22mm long.
