Exotek introduce new RB6-series option parts

Exotek have released a bunch of new option parts for Kyosho’s RB6 series of buggies. First up is a 5mm carbon fibre rear shock tower for the RB6.6. Mid motor specific, the shock tower is of a heavy duty design yet lightweight at 16g with the more robust material than the stock plastic part making for consistent handling on high-grip tracks. Designed with a reinforced cut at the shock posts for added strength and a low centre cut for improved wing air flow and a lower centre of gravity.


Next up is a 30g RF suspension mount for the RB6.6. It quickly adds weight to the rear of mid motor converted vehicles with the heavier-than-stock part improving rear traction and stability. The machined brass mount comes with a black coating, its sleek profile makes for a low centre of gravity and it is best used with laydown gearbox vehicles run on dirt tracks. Also new are the Flite RB6 titanium front axles. Usable on the RB6.6 and the older spec RB6, the axles weigh in at only 5.1g a pair which is about half the weight of the stock steel axles. Rounded and angled hex profile makes wheel installation extra quick and easy. Last but not least come front and rear titanium quick change shock posts. Machined from titanium the parts are of an ultra light weight, weighing in at about 1g for the front and 1.4g for the rear parts. On top of this the 6-4 grade titanium parts allow for quick and easy suspension geometry changes by simply undoing the mounting M3 locknuts. The mounts are usable with the RB6.6, RB6 and RT6.
