If you are packing your bicycle for air transport, you may want to support the thru-axle or QR for where the wheel hubs used to be. This support will help provide a more rigid frame (especially if you have a carbon frame).
I made these for 12mm thruaxle 100mm front and 142mm back. The 142mm is split into 2 pieces of 71mm to be joined by a coupler nut using M18 threads.
I can also make them for a QR or other axles later if there is interest. But if you need a 12mm thru-axle brace, try this the next time you bike has to go on a plane.
I also included a version with a 12 tooth sprocket which you can use if you don't remove your RD hanger. FWIW, I always remove he RD hanger as it is fragile and breaks easily.
