As much as I’ve fully drunken the disc brake kool aid, not having a single thru axle thread pitch and length standard is such a kick in the dick. If they could have those two set then at least you can design around the rest via interchangeable washers/spacers. And having different hex head sizes on a single bike might be the most lazily overlooked issue that so many companies screw up.

At least it looks like the RAT and Maxie systems have gone the way of the dodo.
The Maxle I mentioned in the first post looks normal, what is obsolete?
