there's fuck all difference in stiffness between 30 and 24mm axles,
Probably true if you're comparing 24mm steel with 30mm aluminium. Both are so much stiffer than 16-17mm hollow steel square taper axles that any difference is a #marginalgain

Praxis Works. I've had it for... hang on... *checks Strava... 9,876.3km, and nary a creak. Bearings still good too. Hmm, might double check those before the Alps appear though.
AFAIK, there's fuck all difference in stiffness between 30 and 24mm axles, especially when you're up at Ultegra/DA level. Though I'm sure Mr Tester is the better person to ask.
