K-Factory have released 2 new bearing sets for Kyosho and Mugen 1/8th scale buggies that use the company’s ZF bearings that offer almost frictionless performance that helps smooth out your transmission system. The improvement in performance comes from the new tighter knit balls inside the bearing and the high quality materials used to manufacturer the entire part. The closer the balls are to each other inside the bearing the less load each one has to carry. This means the friction resulting from contact between the bearing cage and ball is reduced making the entire bearing more efficient.
