Would A Stock Axle Be Ok

[NAXbansheeman11]

Hey guys would a stock axle hold out for xc racing?

for a while it would, but youll eventually beat it hard enough to bend it.

i agree your light it won't bend i am 175 and raced mx on my stock one came short on doubles and never bent my stock one and there not as wide as the after market ones so when your flying threw the trees you won't hit anything lol

300+ bones for an aftermarket axle.

i like the stocker as long as im running a stock cut swing arm, your stock swing arm will twist before the lsr axle bends and will tweak the swing arm to frame mount on a stock frame if you take a big enough hit, at 50 bucks for a stock axle and with offset ITP's you should be cool on the width, and you can bend the stocker and be back in biz fairly quick........ the chrome LSR is a nice trinket though.....same with a-arms if your going to pound a stock framed bansh its cheaper to run the softer parts....your bike tracks like shit when the frames tweaked

i have a -1 quicksand swing arm
