T-Works 5mm allen wrench

T-Works have announced the release of their new 5mm allen wrench that allows for effortless building, adjustment and maintenance of pivot ball suspensions. The shouldered design ensures that the hex wrench only contacts the pivot ball nut but not the actual pivot ball underneath, providing protection for the suspension balls that are often made of delicate aluminium, ensuring smooth suspension movement. The tool uses T-Works’ lightweight aluminium handle and it is suitable for off-road and on-road pivot ball suspensions alike.

Pro-Line Shadow 2.2” S3 compound buggy tyres

Pro-Line have announced the soon release of they new Shadow 2.2” buggy tyres in S3 soft compound. Designed for drivers that are tired of burning down brand-new Positrons into ghost pins or slicks in order to be competitive in several track conditions, the new Shadow tyres have the same Positron tyre shape but require much less grinding and burning in to get into the sweet spot. The tread of the Shadow matches the internal webbing exactly as if the internal webbing grew from the inside out. This provides consistent stability when running as ghost shadow tread while the short tread makes it easy to burn off when needing a full slick. The tyre is available as 2WD front, 4WD front and 2WD/4WD rear tyre with the S3 compound adding to the previously introduced MC clay and S4 super soft variants.
