i went riding at the local sand pitts today, hit a jump that throws you maybe five feet in the air but came down a little crooked and i bent my axle bad .what luck i could see it if i had some real air but five feet, i say im alittle pissed ! anyway who has the best aftermarket axle durablue or lonestar i guess im in the market for one!!

 

oops.. wrong bike... ... had to delete it...

 

I just got my Lone Star Excalibar axle for my Raptor and I must say it is an awesome piece. Very well made. It's quite a bit bigger in diameter than the stock one. I haven't put it on yet but so far I'm very happy with it. I couldn't find anyone that's ever hurt one. I've heard of a few people breaking Durablue's.

 

He needs an axle for a BANSHEE.

 

i like dura blue axles.

 

I know he needs an axle for a BANSHEE. Doesn't it stand to reason that if they make a high quality axle for the Raptor that they would also make a high quality axle for the Banshee? Most of the Durablue axles that I have heard broke were on Banshee's. I just thought I would give him my take on what I thought was an awesome product.

 

Sand pits, within 2 hours drive? Cool. How much is there to ride?

 

i can see that this is going to come down to personal choice. i think i may go ahead with lonestar due to the fact that from what i hear they dont try to screw with you on replacement as does durablue, and bash the sand pitts we are talking about are in bructon tn ,tons of step face hill climbs and jumps . and its a big place.

 

also who has the best price on axles ,who did you guys buy yours from? thanks!

 

dont cry,i thought that maybe you assumed he had a Raptor when he said he had a bent axle.
