Weight
The heaviness of a BMX part, measured by weighing. It's worth noting that weight specifications for BMX parts can vary and may not always be precise. Several factors contribute to this:Manufacturer's weight specifications may be inaccurate or incomplete.The weight of two identical parts can also differ.We cannot weigh every individual part.For example, if there are handlebars in different heights, the manufacturer usually provides just one weight specification for all heights. When weighing two identical tires, you might get two different results.Source: BMX Glossary

The Wolf Tooth MTB Thru Axle - Rear 12mm X-12 is the rear thru axle for frames with the Syntace X-12 system, as used by Specialized, Cannondale, Intense, 3T, Canyon and others. It replaces a lost or damaged stock axle and differs from the other Wolf Tooth axles by the conical stainless steel washer under the head that the X-12 dropout requires. The captive washer reduces friction on the dropout face: more of the tightening torque becomes clamping load, the frame stays undamaged and the axle does not gall when you remove it. Machined from 7075-T6 aluminium, 5 mm hex, 12 Nm max; the 159 fits 12x142, the 165 fits 12x148 Boost. Axle length is independent of hub dimensions, Wolf Tooth provides a printable measuring guide; the length may differ by 2 mm. Apply a little grease to washer and threads when installing.
