Schelle B5M aluminium rear arm mount D

The Schelle B5M aluminium rear arm mount D replaces the kit plastic part on a B5M and T5M. The design improves durability, ground clearance, and also ease of use to disassemble the rear suspension, while the added strength of aluminium allows for a minimalist design using machined Delrin pivot balls to allow for perfect suspension alignment. The compact design keeps the mount high off of the chassis bottom to avoid dragging on jumps and landings. With the addition of a rear carbon fibre cap, Schelle is planning new inner hinge pins that allow for rear-pull in dis-assembling the rear end and changing anti-squat. Available in both black or blue anodized with laser etched Schelle logo.
