Rohloff A12 spacer left-hand 8596 for Shimano E-Thru
Rohloff 8596 – left-hand A12 spacer for Shimano E-Thru.

Why this spacer?

  • For Shimano E-Thru. Rohloff lists the 8596/8597 spacers for Shimano E-Thru 12 mm frames.
  • Pairs with 8592. The 8592 reduction sleeve goes through the spacer to reduce the opening to 7 mm for the axle bolt.
  • Correct fitting. Rohloff states that 12 mm thru-axle frames must be measured with the A12 dropout measurement kit (Art. 8600) to work out which reduction sleeves and spacers are needed.

Who is it for?

  • Riders with a Shimano E-Thru frame. The left-side spacer for an A12 Speedhub.
  • Workshops. A single spare instead of a complete A12 kit.

About Rohloff

Rohloff AG is a German manufacturer from the Kassel area, best known for the Speedhub 500/14 – a sealed 14-speed gear hub with evenly spaced gears. Rohloff sells every spare part as an individual item, so a Speedhub can be serviced and adapted to a new frame instead of being replaced.

BoodaBike (Massive Bikes, Budapest) is an official Rohloff service centre, trained by Rohloff, and an official European distributor of Rohloff hubs and parts. We build Speedhub bikes with Gates belt drive ourselves – if you are unsure which part fits your hub or frame, ask us before ordering.
