I origionaly started with an Axial, which still have.. .i think it is just as capable if not more capable than the losi.

To tell you the truth I am over the Losi... I am sick of the constant maintainence and breakages

But these are for my scaler

I knew they were called something strange Rolling Eyes

I have been running them on my scaler and havn't had any dramas....althought I have pulled them apart and loctited all of the bolts, there were reports of them working loose in the early days.

They do assist with down hill braking due to the reduction in the portal... but this comes with a sacrafice of top end wheel speed

Higher diff clearance... but that also raises you center of gravity

Slightly wide foot print.. at present I still intend on running them unless I start having dramas

holy ####, can you say staunch. Twisted Evil
I reckon they would take some serious abuse.
Only one problem though. That price is only for a pair...so they work out even more expensive than the 3 racing ones.
