DescriptionThe whole story▼
On the single-sided swingarm of a Ducati Panigale V4, the rear wheel fastening is one of the most exposed details on the entire machine. The K-Bike COM48 is a precision-machined aluminium cone engineered specifically for the M48x1.5 rear wheel nut — replacing the factory item with a component that is lighter, stronger in appearance, and available in eight anodised colours to complement any build.
Key Features
- Precision-machined from high-grade aluminium for a clean, accurate fit on M48x1.5 rear wheel nuts
- Direct replacement for the original cone — no modification required
- Available in eight anodised finishes: black, red, blue, silver, green, orange, titanium and gold
- Pairs perfectly with K-Bike aluminium rear wheel nuts for a coordinated or two-tone effect
- Engineered for the Ducati Panigale V4, V4 S and V4 R (model years 2018 to 2024)
- Part number COM48 — designed with racing aesthetics and track use in mind
Premium Aluminium Construction
K-Bike has built its reputation on producing small components that meet the tolerances expected in competition. The COM48 cone is machined from quality aluminium and finished with a durable anodised coating, giving each colour variant a hard-wearing surface that resists corrosion and retains its appearance under track and road conditions alike. The result is a part that feels as purposeful as it looks — tight-fitting, light, and free of the crude finish you find on lesser aftermarket pieces.
The anodising process goes beyond cosmetics: it provides a hard outer layer that protects the aluminium from the heat, grime, and abrasion typical of the rear wheel environment. Whether you select the understated titanium finish or the more assertive red or gold, the surface quality is consistent across the range.
Function and Individual Style
The COM48 replaces the factory cone with the same precise fitment, so there is no compromise in function. Where it steps beyond the original is in the visual dimension. On a Panigale V4 with its prominent single-sided swingarm, the rear axle area is always on show — and this cone allows you to align that detail with the rest of your colour scheme.
Combine it with a matching K-Bike aluminium rear wheel nut for a clean tone-on-tone look, or deliberately contrast the two components for a dual-colour accent that draws the eye. The eight available colours make it straightforward to echo the anodised finishes already present on your rearsets, levers, brake components, or other accessories.
Fitment and Compatibility
The K-Bike COM48 aluminium cone is designed for the following models:
- Ducati Panigale V4 — 2018 to 2024
- Ducati Panigale V4 S — 2018 to 2024
- Ducati Panigale V4 R — 2018 to 2024
Compatible with M48x1.5 rear wheel nuts. Confirm your current axle nut specification before ordering if you have already fitted aftermarket components.
