"Le Focus Cayo emprunte le blocage de roue RAT du Mares CX. Il s’agit d’un axe traversant muni d’un « T » à son extrémité et qui vient s’insérer dans une fente. Par rapport à un système traditionnel, ce dispositif autorise un montage et un démontage très rapide, mais également une grande rigidité, ce qui permet d’éviter les frottements intempestifs du disque contre les plaquettes."

The challenge faced with through-axles is that the axle must be clamped axially as well as radially in the dropouts in order to achieve a high rigidity. But clamping axially and radially so far, also meant having to tighten several screws. We solve this problem by using a taper which allows play-free clamping in both axial and radial directions even though the axle is only tightened axially.
A further big problem with conventional through-axles is the missing stop and a guide for the rear axle which would enable a much simpler positioning of the rear wheel with respect to the dropouts. To guarantee a really simple mounting of the rear wheel dropouts with axle guides are required or else the rear axle has no defined positioning. "
