About quality and texture - The front hollow axle shaft from Kitaco is made from chromoly steel with precision machining and a black oxide surface finish, the quality from the overall fit and finish is perfect.About the feeling of use - The black finished axle looks wonderful against the black lower fork legs. Fitting this to the front of the Monkey 125 is more noticeable handling wise then when fitting one to the rear. Not something I considered necessary in the past but as I continue to work on the Honda Monkey 125 I find it best to replace the cheaper parts as I am performing scheduled maintenance in that area.Products to buy together - While performing maintenance on the brakes and tires, I considered it the perfect opportunity to also replace the front axle collars with a lighter option ftom Kitaco.Difficulty of installation - The installation of the front axle is a simple task that took 0.5 of an hour to complete. Some mechanical aptitude and the use of basic hand tools is what is required to remove weight fron the front wheel and swap the original axle with a greased hollow axle shaft.Cost performance and comparison with other products - I find the cost of all the products Kitaco sell to great value when compared to what most other companies sell their products for and the front axle is no different.About shipping and packaging - With there being no cost difference between sea freight and EMS for the front axle, I chose EMS for an earlier arrive date. The part was extremely well protected while being covered in bubble wrap and surrounded with air pillows in a sturdy cardboard box.Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing - Webike Japan is the first place I look to for all my motorcycle needs. From service parts to performance products and even motorcycle gear and apparel, Webike always seem to satisfy my needs in regards to availability and pricing.

About quality and texture, I can confirm that the quality is great and that the material used is steel with a black finish.About the feeling of use, The feel when steering is noticeably lighter. A better looking and performing front wheel axle then the original Honda part with the black finish aligning with the black fork legs and light weight hollowed design assisting with less unsprung weight.Products to buy together, Kitaco have different length axles that can be used on the swing arm pivot and rear wheel axles and they can be added to your cart to further reduce the unspring weight on the Grom.Difficulty of installation, I can say the fitment of the front wheel axle for my installation was simple as access is straight forward and the nature of securing the axle between the lower fork legs is simple.Cost performance and comparison with other products, The pricing of the product is great. You receive an axle made from a quality material with a quality finish. There are no cheaper options with this lightweight design that I could find and the original Honda part is only sligthly cheaper..About shipping and packaging, My order was shipped within 24 hours of the product being in stock and I received a few emails advising me of the status up until the order was dispatched. The order arrived within the estimated date range and was extremely well packaged. I found the link supplied to track my order very useful while I was waiting for the order to land in the country.Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing, I have no concerns or cautions when purchasing from Webike. I cannot recommend Webike enough for the majority of your biking needs. They not only sell aftermarket parts and bike gear but also OEM parts for your repairs and servicing needs.

I didn’t buy this axel for any weight saving I bought it for two primary reason 1) the axel bolt and nut are 17mm in size, going away from the stock 14 ands 17 mm varying sizing on the stock axel. Being hollow makes some weight saving but it hardly noticeable. 2)The most important factor for me was the black DLC coating makes the shaft removal and installation super easy. For the price everyone should get one.

KITACO Hollow Axle Shaft to be used on the front wheel of the Honda Grom (or Monkey) as they have the same size.A good option for the weight saving althought the weight I measured it's not quite as low as stated... Otherwise it would get 5 stars. But overall, it's another quality product from KITACO.
