Exotek 22S Extra long ladder wheelie bar set

This extra long carbon fibre wheelie bar from Exotek Racing for the Losi 22S Drag provides extra stable high speed passes. The longer bar gives you more stability than the short stock wheelie bar, for straighter and faster passes without needing to let off the throttle as often. A quick 2 screw adjustment helps raise or lower the bar that allows finer adjustments on the bar itself so that you can tune in the absolute perfect bar height. A must for perfect launches and competitive racing. This mounts to the stock 22S Drag motor guard and uses the stock wheelie wheels and is made of extra heavy duty 3mm carbon fibre with alloy support posts.
