New maxle required.

Just come back from a ride and whilst riding the maxle on my Reba SL seems to have popped out. Although I knew as soon as it happened I couldn't find it and now need a replacement. The problem is I'm not entirely sure which one I require. The bike is a Boardman Team FS 2010 model and it has 20mm hub but I'm not sure how I find out what chassis size is required. Can anyone help?

I can't help with the chassis size, but how did a 20mm Maxle just 'pop out' ? Was it screwed in properly?0

Chassis size is 32mm (it's the diameter of the stanchions). You need to double check that that 2011-model maxle will fit your 2010 fork. It probably will, but they changed the design from having a wedge on both ends between those years, so the threaded end might be slightly different.0

Sorry, my description was wrong, the maxle didn't pop out but the quick release bit broke off...0

You can usually bodge that with a rear qr if you have to.
Edit: take a look on TFTuned, they have just the qr and wedge parts. Might save you a bit over a whole Maxle.0
