Why is it that the higher end complete bikes on dans and other websites dont have 14 mm front axles?

Question

im lookin to buy a complete but i'd like to have 14 mm front cuz im a bigger guy. but it seems like the only completes that have a 14 mm front are the lower end bikes with unsealed cassettes, bb, and hubs and cheaper parts in general. anyone know any place that might have what im lookin for?

Answer 1

Because it's not needed. I weigh 200lbs. and have a 3/8" front axle (mind you my GSport Hub's axles is stronger than a 14mm!). If pros can't break 3/8" why have anything larger?
