Associated 12mm clamping wheel hexes

Team Associated’s Factory Team aluminium 12mm clamping wheel hexes clamp securely onto the axle, preventing the hex from getting stuck in your wheels, which allows for speedy wheel changes. The hex adapters are CNC machined out of 6061-T6 aluminum and anodized Factory Team blue. The 12mm hexes use a 2-56 Socket Head Cap screw (included), which allows for the use of either a 5/64″ or 2mm Allen wrench. The hexes make a great upgrade for your SC10, or to convert your B4.1 or B44.1 to Team Associated’s new 12mm hex wheels.

Serpent Cobra Sport buggy

Serpent have released the next addition to their growing Cobra line, the Cobra Sport buggy. Based on the full race version of the Cobra buggy and sharing the race genes, geometry and most technical features, the Sport version features some less expensive materials, without suffering performance wise. With its superior suspension, race geometry, high performance diffs, bigbore shocks and race-clutch, it is already highly specced. All parts and options of the high end race version fit this Sport version too, so a step by step upgrade is possible.

Xray NT1 progressive springs

From Xray for the NT1 these new progressive springs are soft at the beginning of the compression but become harder as the spring is compressed more in the middle, with the hardest at the end. Pearl-grey color and laser engraved for easy identification they are available as a pair, with the springs individually measured, controlled, inspected and matched to provide identical damping characteristics. During the selection process, each spring is compressed in several fine increments and the values are recorded. Each spring is then matched with another spring of identical characteristics.
