Abstract
A bicycle axle assembly has a nut member that includes a first part and a second part. The first part has an internal thread. The second part has a projection that is arranged to engage a dropout of a bicycle frame. The first and second parts have first and second anti-rotational structures, respectively, that move relative to each other between an engaged position, in which the first and second parts are non-rotatably engaged relative to each other by the first and second anti-rotational structures, and a disengaged position, in which the first and second mating anti-rotational structures are disengaged such that the first and second parts rotate relative to each other.
