An axle arrangement () for two-wheelers, particularly for bicycles, includes a quick-release axle () having an axle () as the supporting part for a hub (). The axle () can be inserted in receiving or dropout ends () of a fork (), a linkage, a rear end or similar mount. The axle () has a threaded end () and a quick-release fastener () with a tensioning lever () on the other end. One of the dropout ends (), or an intermediate supporting part that can be connected to the dropout ends (), has a screw-in thread () for screwing in the one threaded axle end () of the axle (). In addition, an adjustable stop may be provided for the purpose of limiting the screw-in depth of the threaded axle end () in the screw-in thread () of the dropout ends or in the screw-in thread () of the intermediate supporting part connected to the dropout ends ().
