Depends if you've got one with an original steel axle or the newer alu.

the stock axle weighs nothing.
Not quite true, but close enough. Even my custom Ti one didn't save any weight compared with the stock aluminium one.
@Dandy is your axle thread M9×1? If so, you can just swap it for a bog standard Shimano hollow axle (Sora will do) and run an M6 tap into the ends to do the bolt-on conversion, that's probably the most aero but the Hed aluminium axle with a Ti Allen-key skewer is lighter.

Messing around? You saucy bint!
Not entirely sure what you're after: the stock axle weighs nothing.
I replaced mine with a somewhat heavier axle in order to convert it from QR to Allen screw.
Deets here. @Dandy
