Default anyone used bizzare hobbys???

Seen an ad on ebay for Bizarre hobbies here's the link:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Axial-AX10-S...item3a6a0df172


Are these frames worth the money or is it cheaper and better to just get the axscx frame

No offense to Bizarre Hobbies, but I can't imagine this chassis being better than a stock AX or SCX chassis. I'm not even sure if it's meant to be a comp or scale chassis since it doesn't look to be either. Maybe a monster truck chassis?

Not enough holes for adjustment, IMO.

HR does seem to go overboard with the "adjustability"

Josh and I are running knuckles and hubs on our wraiths off their website, don't think they had anything to do with the design, but they have good prices.

I thought it looked funny. Not sure still if going scale on my ax10 or gonna make it hardcore crawler. If i decide not to then im either gonna sell my rc10t3 or if worth it then i may convert it to a crawler but it's only 2wd and in long run prolly be cheaper and easier to just sell it or swap for a roller.

And yeah erector set is what i was trying to think of lol....

Looks like a wanna be Wheelie King...

That said, for scale, an SCX chassis or something like that is your friend, that thing is just awful... ive seen a few things that come close but not THAT bad

I would stay away from that chassis, but bizzar hobbies as a seller on eBay is great, i've ordered all my hot racing XR10 parts from them never had any issues.

Hey don't knock the holes guys, this chassis was one of the better ones back a few years ago. I loved this chassis.

But yeah, that Bizzare hobbies chassis is not worth the poop that was created while sitting on the thrown thinking of that chassis. But they do ship pretty fast for the other stuff they carry
