To my knowledge there isn't any other axles available. The BD axles may or may not be bent @ delivery-but will be just after installation if you drive off-road (bought 2,got 1 replaced, same issue every time). I had a custom axle made and snapped it after 6 months. When you factor the narrow width, the specific splined hubs and the sprocket/brake rotor carriers are welded in place, the pivot point bushings & brackets failure rate- it just made sense for me to just come up with a totally different set-up that could be maintained and have options to modify it. I wanted more width (44"). That's the reason I used the BX125 axle & components with a home built swingarm in my wifes Yerf (1-1/2 yrs later-zero issues). Ckau's mod's look great for a fix, letting you use a standard axle & components.
