I looked at the chart on RPM's site regarding strength and flex comparisons between brands.  Obviously, their axle flexes or bends the least.  Considering cost, which axle would be the preferred?  I've read the G-Force from Rockymountain is a decent product.  The RPM chart shows it bends the easiest.  What has been the most reliable for all around use as well as abusive riding?  Lonestar, RPM, etc???

There was a huge thread on RaptorForum back in the day on the GForce axle and all the warranty claims they were having.  I'd go with RPM for my quad.

I am more then happy with my RPM axle, a real solid piece.  Plus the customer support is top notch.

i just got the g-force ($178.99 on ebay) and i am very happy so far,  i have never bent any axle before i just bought it for the width and the price.

G-man, If you decide to get a RPM axle let us know. I've had both the LSR axle and the RPM.. with no major complaints with either one of them.  If I had to do it over again I would get the RPM first.

most people don't have any issues with the g-force for a few seasons (mx,xc), but overtime they eventually get weak if they have been abused and end up bending. However, G-Force has a warranty do if you don't mind taking that axle back off its not big deal. For hardcore recreational the g-force would last years probably if they keep all 4 wheels on the ground. :thumbs:

Take care
