Hi all, I recently purchased a Trek Domane AL 2, have ridden for maybe ~150 miles so far. Anyway this morning this exact thing happened to me, my front thru axle came loose. Didn't fall out or anything but the wheel started to wobble. Luckily I was on a flat, calm section of road. But damn if I was flying down a hill when that happened...

All I can assume is that either the bike shop did not adequately tighten it (they seemed pretty professional tho), or somebody maliciously untightened it/attempted to steal wheel...? It's the bolt type, torque spec is 10 Nm. I hand retightened it and rode back slowly lol. Guess I should invest in a torque wrench
