R1 Wurks B7 Lightweight Drivetrain Parts
R1 Wurks has released a number of lightweight drivetrain parts for the Team Associated RC10B7 1:10 2WD Buggy. Lightweight Rear CVA Axle offer the same durability as the stock components but with a lighter design. Weighing in at just 7.9grams for the pair, these CVA shafts are 26.85% lighter than the standard parts. Made from treated high-yield strength steel with exceptional elasticity and toughness. They are finished in a low friction, wear-resistant titanium nitride (TiN) coating. Also from the US manufacturer are Lightweight HD CVA 69mm Bones. Weighing in at 8.7grams for the pair, the optimised shaft diameter reduces weight and lowers rotational inertia, allowing for faster acceleration and deceleration. They also offer an Ultra-Lightweight version specifically for the 21.5 to 17.5 classes which weigh 7.2 grams (pair). Finally the lightweight range includes Lightweight Differential Outdrives which reduce weight over the stock part by almost 35%.
