Team Associated B5M 3-gear transmission

Team Associated’s new B5M 3-gear transmission provides the spec class racer with a lightweight/low rotating mass option to improve drivetrain efficiency. It also features a new, smaller, lightweight top shaft which uses smaller diameter 5x10x4mm bearings for additional weight savings. The 3-gear transmission is also a great tuning aid for modified class racing on high-grip tracks because the gyroscopic effect of the motor is reversed, making the car stay flatter in the corners. The 3-gear transmission requires the dedicated top shaft, gear box, gear cover, and either the black or blue 3-gear motor plate, all sold separately.
