Just saw the first webshops adding the long awaited Ortlieb thru axle and matching quick rack XL adding to their catalogue. Just wanted to let you guys know as we head into spring/summer. Good be a nice alternative to Tailfin.
I’ve asked via facebook to ortlieb and this is the answer π

Ahhh I’m setting off on a 3 month tour on the 1st of April and really want that thru axle and their new rack top dry bag! Hopefully they release it in time.

Exciting. Still not on the website very keen to see measurements and details as the original QR didnβt fit my new Trek X-cal MTB with 29ers even though it has dedicated bosses. Shop owner wouldnβt believe it after I measured from website dims and sure enough didnβt have enough clearance.
Waiting to see if theyβll still attach to standard bosses/eyelets next to the axle. I have older QR not thru.

I 100% would have done this if it was released last month. Instead, spent the money on tailfin.
