Berg/Axial Knuckle weights
 
Brass knuckle weights. Proudly made in the U.S.A.

Brass knuckle weights to attach to the steering knuckle.

This weight will fit:
Axial brand hi clearance knuckles
VP brand Axial hi clearance knuckles
VP brand Berg hi clearance knuckles
VP brand Axial zero ackerman knuckles (may require light grinding)
RCbros LOSI hi clearance knuckles (mild modification necessary)

WILL NOT WORK WITH STOCK BERG KNUCKLES. ALL AXIAL REFERENCES ARE FOR THE AX10, NOT THE XR10.

Benefits of a knuckle weight system
Less rotating mass
Less broken parts
More wheel speed
More run time per battery
Serious increase in stability
Sidehill, uphill, downhill
Pulls out/does not get into binds like running with wheel weights
Feels MUCH lighter. Feels like it climbs 1000x better

Each knuckle weight is 2.4oz

The weights have been tapped so extra rings can be bolted to them.
Each .100 ring weighs approx .4 oz.
Each .300 ring weighs approx 1.2oz.
Each large diameter ring (goes around the knuckle weight) weighs approx 3.4oz.

Pricing:

Knuckle weight complete setup: (2) Knuckle weights, (4) extra rings and all hardware $83
(2) Knuckle weights $58
(2) Extra .100 rings with hardware $15
(2) Extra .300 rings with hardware $20
(2) Large diameter rings with hardware $20

I totaly forgot about asking the i.d. Thanks for the info. Can you tell me how wide the knuckle weight is?

Basically, I am trying to figure out if it will work with any of my 1.9 wheels.

Sorry, I dont have the answers for every setup. The ZA knuckles will fit, even in BTA setup. Almost every wheel out there should work with these. I would guess your Mayhem wheels will work but not allow the use of any rings.

As soon as I get feedback from everybody on what works I will update the thread above with more info on what wheels work with what ring combos.

They should work with 1.9 wheels. I have my Losi ones on my Axial 1.9's.

i.d. is 1" the width will come out close to flush with the backside of the hex.

I still have about half of the knuckle weights left. I only have enough .100 rings for one more "complete set" then I will be turning that option off until approx next week when I get more in.

Also, you should only need 2- .100 rings per side, ever. After that its much better to order the .300 rings

Erik D_lux 03-12-2011 12:38 AM

And gone....

I will have more .100 rings soon.

Erik D_lux 03-16-2011 12:43 PM

I have the knuckle weights, just no .100 rings.

I should have some more .100 rings in stock next week.
