Santa Cruz Rear Axle 12x173.7mm Race Red

Burgtec Santa Cruz Rear Axle 12x173.7mm Race Red brings together precision, strength, and a clean finish for riders who demand reliability from every component on their bike. Designed to match Santa Cruz’s exact specifications, this axle is built from high-grade 7075 aluminum to deliver stiffness and durability that stands up to aggressive trail and enduro riding.

With a simple, no-nonsense design, this axle tightens using a 6mm Allen key—and if things ever get rounded on one side, a backup 6mm interface on the drive side has you covered. The Race Red anodized finish adds a subtle flash of style while resisting corrosion and wear, keeping your setup looking sharp season after season.

• Precision fit for Santa Cruz frames using the 173.7mm rear axle standard
• 7075 aluminum construction for maximum strength and minimal weight
• Dual 6mm Allen key interface makes tightening and removal simple and secure
• Race Red anodized finish resists the elements and adds a clean, custom touch
• Compatible models: 5010 V4, 5010 V5*, Blur V4*, Bronson V4, Bronson V5*, Bullit V3 MX (E-bike), Chameleon V8, Heckler V9*, Heckler SL V1*, Highball V3.1*, Hightower V2 (MY22+), Hightower V3*, Hightower V4*, Megatower V2*, Nomad V5, Nomad V6*, Tallboy V4 (MY22+), Tallboy V5*, Vala V1*, and Juliana equivalents

*Note: The included UDH bolt is only compatible with SRAM UDH hangers, not the native Santa Cruz alloy hanger—though the axle itself fits either setup perfectly.*

For riders who appreciate components that perform as cleanly as they look, the Burgtec Santa Cruz Rear Axle 12x173.7mm Race Red is a small upgrade that makes a big difference in strength, serviceability, and style.
