Italian company WRC introduce composite bearing adapters to run smaller and lighter wheel bearings in 1/10th electric touring cars and many F1 chassis. Usual wheel hub bearings weigh in at around 2.3g per pair while WRC’s bearing adapters and smaller wheel bearings scrub around 1.2g a pair meaning two bearings roughly weigh more than 1.1 gram, sparing a good amount of unsprung weight. The adapter are available in sets of four while the suitable bearings come as pairs.

The special design, inspired by full scale race car bodywork, reduces drag and increases downforce to make the most out of today’s touring car bodies. Like the two previously released wings the part comes white and in a slightly grainy finish and it is highly recommended to paint the wing for flexibility and durability.
