Hello my friend bought a cube Road bike a couple of years ago from dales in Glasgow.
After a couple of months he got a punture couldn't get the wheel off had to take back to the shop.
It turns out thru axle was stuck whole bike got sent away.
Hes had wheel of a couple of times since and just upgraded to a fulcrum wheelset.
He had a punture and the axle is threaded bought a replacement of wiggle wrong size it's the one on the left that's threaded anyone know where he can get a replacement like for like.

Does he have the manual - it might tell him what the detailed axle dimensions are.
There does appear to be different thread pitch for the same length and width axles,
Not sure if you can see any difference visually, but google seems to indicate that since "X12" is visible, there is a pretty fair chance that the pitch is 1.0mm.
Some more reading that may help:
