If only it were that easy... loads of differing lengths to account for Rock Shox on MTBs (the stanchion/fork dropouts are usually really wide) which make finding a 125mm axle much harder to find.
FWIW I've found a really useful resource (should anyone else be having the same problem) at the Robert Axle project: a printable measuring guide for length, width and thread pitch.

Risky business to assume all MTB axles are all the same, when things like thread pitch, length of axle vs inner length of fork dropouts etc are all competing for attention.
So fingers crossed, if anyone has an older standard axle lying around, let me know.

Hi, my name is Josh and I'm the founder of AdaptCycles. We have started to sell a product in the UK which could provide a solution to your 15mm fork problem. Our adapters allow you to convert a 15mm fork down to the standardised 12mm size. Please get in touch and I'd be happy to help find a solution for you. We cover nearly every fork dimension there is!

Sorry, I thought you were after a replacement wheel.
It should still be pretty simple. All you need is the standard, the thread pitch and roughly overall length

WTD: 15mm roadie thru axle
Posted by
@Aizle
I'm in a mine field of standards. I've got an older road frame/fork (pre-12mm standardisation) and having had to hammer out a seized, old thru-axle yesterday from my front fork, I'm on the hunt for a replacement. Oddly it's anything but straightforward in my searches online thus far.
Does anyone out there have an old thru axle lying around to sell? I'm looking for a 15mm thru axle, width (from head to end of thread end) is 125mm. AFAIK that means its a 100mm fork width.
Anyone able to help?
