Shepherd Velox V10 lightweight wheel axles

To satisfy the demands of serious racers, Team Shepherd have introduced aluminium lightweight wheel axles for the Velox V10. The rotating mass could be reduced by more than 60% which improves the acceleration significantly. Additionally the handling of the car improves as the un damped mass is reduced, too. The CNC-machined wheel axles are made of special aircraft aluminium which offers optimum strength and durability. A special hard coating prevents the axles from excessive wear and an extra hole for the CVD pin simply doubles the lifetime.
