CRC have updated their True-All truer arbor, which has been updated for a better fit on more brands of wheels. The thread-on clamp piece is now double ended with a different taper pitch and different outside diameter on each end to ensure that the arbor will clamp your tires tightly for a no wobble finish. Also new from CRC is this slipper setup for the Blitz, which saves weight, adds acceleration and is way easier to use and setup. The straight forward design is much simpler to assemble due to getting rid of all the extra, unnecessary parts for quicker and easier spur gear changes. The trimmed down design also saves about 8 grams over the stock pieces, reducing rotating weight and helping to increase initial acceleration.
