Rohloff Axleplate TS OEM2 long
The Rohloff Axleplate TS OEM2 long (8228L) is the TS OEM2 plate with a longer axle journal: IS-mount torque anchoring for threaded-axle Speedhub 500/14 hubs in frames with particularly thick dropouts.

Why the TS OEM2 long plate?
For thick dropouts. Longer axle journal for full thread engagement of the axle nut.
IS mount anchoring. Anchors at the disc brake mount with a support bolt, Speedbone or Monkey Bone.
Trailer friendly. The extra length can also take a trailer coupling or rear stand.
Who is it for?
- Owners of thick steel dropouts with IS mount. OEM2 anchoring when the standard plate is too short.
- Riders towing a trailer. Extra length on the axle.

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.
