Xray T2 52mm ECS Drive Shafts

The same concept as the previously available 50mm versions, Xray have released the new 52mm ECS drive shaft, designed with high-level racing in mind. These drive shafts were developed to decrease front wheel vibration when racing with a solid front axle, thus providing a much smoother and quieter ride and increasing steering. The drive shaft equalizes the speed between the drive shaft and the wheel, with a unique 2-piece joint between the axle and the wheel, the same extreme wheel turning angle is divided into two shallower angles without joint binding.
