monkey/rat stub axles

[bigchris]

hi
our wee ansmann buch have been killing stub axles recently , any alternatives available??

[Robbiejuk]

Front or back?

Can't say I have done either to be fair in over a years racing.

I've managed to snap 2 front axles on my x2c in the last month or so, no obvious impact just lost the wheel Bit annoying as you can loose the bearings, hex, pin & wheel nut as a result

I guess all you can do is keep a good spares back up.

I think kyosho stubs would fit? I'm not saying they would be any stronger but they do a WC front stub that has the hex all built in.

What I'm thinking is that it has no hole to create a weak point

They look good, I wonder if they would thin the front track out to?

Rob, when fitted to the kyosho rb5 WC front end they have 3mm ( I think) of spacers so you can alter the track by putting the spacer/s what ever side of the bearing you want

Hope that waffle makes sense

Maybe have alook @ the rb5 WC manual from the kyosho website things might become clear then
