First thing i thought of when i saw the rear sideon photo was it looks like one of my old Yok YZ10's

Really like the new all black look, and the lcg shocks are much better

What are the benefits of the small bore shock but with big bore springs?

Very good Carl

I found the car awesome and considering it was the Cat that make me getting back to RC (always wanted one in the 90's and bought an SX that put me back on it for good), this one seems to be what I was expecting back then up to now.

The SX3 was very good but too complicated for me. This one seems simple yet more effective (2 belts, no eccentrics, etc).

Speaking of SB shocks, I ran some on my K cars for quite a while now because the car is more responsive and also (very important) jumps better on small jumps/whoops. Off course the BB do work great on big jumps and are more forgiving but on all but the very big jumps I felt the SB car kind of flow over the jumps. Don't know if that make sense but I kept coming back to them.

Would it be possible to turn a sx 3 into a k1? With new chassis and top decks and relevant parts like belts ?

The K1 is Pin Drive just like the SX3!

My last Cat was the SX or SX2, and it came with both pin and hex fittings for the front wheels. Can anyone confirm if the new K1 will be the same?

On K1 you can use the front hex too.. but I am not sure it is included in the kit.. yet ;-)
