Im trying to find somewhere to buy a 224 axle for my glory, anyone know if theres somewhere in Australia that sells them or will i have to buy it directly from Orange and get it shipped over?

Thanks.

All well and good if you want to get charged $70 for a piece of aluminium rod with a bolt put in one end and a nut on the other.
Because the Orange one is so much cheaper... in fact I'm pretty sure it's about $80. You can whinge about the price all you want but it's hardly uncommon for DH bike axles to cost that kind of money.

Yeah the orange one is 60 pounds or so i think plus postage from england. And unless you have your own machine shop i doubt youll find it any cheaper i guess. :(

I'm using an aluminum norco axle on my faith, Same rear end as glory (correct me if im wrong). I imagine these would be a fair bit cheaper.

I should have suggested for him to go get a piece of 12mm aluminium rod and have a thread put on either end. Probably $20 max.
