DescriptionThe whole story▼
On the single-sided swingarm of the Ducati Panigale V2 955, the rear axle nut is never hidden — it is on full display, framed by open bodywork and a naked wheel. The K-Bike DM48X1,5 aluminium rear wheel nut turns that exposed fastener into a deliberate design statement, machined from aerospace-grade 7075 T6 Ergal aluminium and finished in eight anodised colours to complement the Italian racing heritage of the machine it adorns.
Key Features
- Direct, thread-for-thread replacement for the OEM rear wheel nut — M48x1.5 thread, part number DM48X1,5
- Precision CNC-machined from 7075 T6 Ergal aluminium, balancing minimal weight with exceptional structural strength
- Nut and centering cone are manufactured as separate components, allowing a washer to distribute load evenly and protect contact surfaces from scoring and wear
- Compatible with COM48 cone for a contrasting two-tone finish
- Available in eight anodised colours: Black, Red, Blue, Silver, Green, Orange, Titanium, Gold
- Engineered specifically for the Ducati Panigale V2 955, model years 2020 to 2024
Design, Finish and Heritage
K-Bike has built its reputation around parts that earn their place on serious Italian machinery — components that respect the engineering culture behind the Ducati name. The DM48X1,5 rear wheel nut reflects that ethos: clean geometry born from CNC milling, anodised surfaces that retain their depth under road and track use, and a form that sits naturally alongside the Panigale V2's factory aesthetic.
The choice of 7075 T6 Ergal is deliberate. This alloy has long been the material of choice in motorsport where weight and rigidity must coexist — the same grade used in chassis components, suspension hardware and high-load bracketry across top-level racing categories. On the Panigale V2, that pedigree reads as much in the quality of the finish as in any measurable reduction in rotating mass.
Engineering Detail That Earns Its Place
Where many aftermarket wheel nuts are produced as a single-piece assembly, the K-Bike unit separates the nut body from its centering cone. This split construction means a washer can be introduced into the stack, spreading clamping forces across a larger contact area and shielding the wheel surface from the localised pressure and micro-scratching that accumulates over repeated removal and refitting. For a machine used on track — where wheel changes happen quickly and frequently — this is a considered detail rather than a cosmetic one.
The M48x1.5 thread accepts the same torque specification as the original Ducati fastener, so fitment follows standard procedure: lightly grease the thread before installation and torque to the manufacturer's specified value. No re-drilling, no adapters, no compromises.
Colour to Match Your Build
Whether the Panigale V2 is finished in classic Ducati Rosso with red anodised levers and rearsets, or built around a stealthy monochrome theme with titanium and black hardware, the DM48X1,5 is available in a colour to complete the picture. Pair a contrasting colour with the COM48 cone accessory to create a layered two-tone effect that draws the eye exactly where a well-built swingarm should.
Available colours: Black, Red, Blue, Silver, Green, Orange, Titanium, Gold.
Fitment and Compatibility
