Eclat built the Cortex TA for street, where bent front axles, bent bolts and chewed fork dropouts are just part of the deal. Instead of a bolt each side, a 14mm 4130 chromoly thru-axle passes through a chromoly centre sleeve and clamps the fork, so the load goes through the axle rather than the dropouts.
The shell is refined 6061-T6 alloy, drilled 36 hole with a narrow flange for better spoke clearance while grinding, and it runs two oversize sealed bearings borrowed from rear hub sizing. It takes two modern plastic pegs, comes with washers for adjustment and two nylon fibreglass hub guards, and weighs 382g with the axle. It only fits 14mm forks.
