I just received my NEW DNA R/C Products, 2.2 Sniper Beadlocks from Don yesterday from Don.

AMAZING & SOLID! WOW!

This Berg/Sniper/Panther combo puts my track width at a perfect 10 1/8” (9 3/8” w/o tires - see pics below). This is actually a bit narrower than my Axial/Assassin(Axial offset)/Losi Claws set-up.

Nice narrow rim (1” wide & 1 3/16” with rings installed) allows the tire to balloon up and increase ground clearance.

Weight is at 6.4 oz. each (wheel, rings & hardware). Mounted up with Panther Cougars & memory foam the total weight for each wheel is 10.2 oz.

Don (billet works) has informed me the 2.2 Snipers will be available starting next week.

Yes, my Berg build will be coming...

Sorry, I'll try not to get any drool on them!

PinchFlat · 06-27-2008, 01:47 PM

Don may need to include some tissues with these wheels.

They look great! I look forward to see how the Panthers/DNA combo works on the berg and the tight knuckle clearance. These may be teh ticket for me.

I honestly hate to be a negative nanny but 6 half drilled holes in the face don't do much in the bling department though the black oxide screws really set it off

. Eh function over form works for some, me I gotta have a bit of style in my shoes. At least they should be extremely affordable that would be a plus. Just my .02 though.

Pinch, Mine arrived today. WOW!!! Where did you get the gold ring? I want some of those.

Uh yeah, You could go VP and pay $169. plus extra for parts. Lots of bling. For that I can buy these,which are very functional and look better in person than the pics, a set of 4 Panther Cougars, and still have gas money to go to a comp. I'll use these anyday. Did I say DNA.

Chargerguy · 06-27-2008, 07:15 PM

Just voicing my opinion on the design I'm sure they are good wheels. Any idea on the price of them?

PinchFlat · 06-27-2008, 07:19 PM

Don is shooting for $99

The $99 retail price is a done deal.

We are lucky to have great vendors on this site. We all have our opinions on what we want to use. I love being able to choose, what I want to use. It's nice having so many choices. My thanks to all the vendors who work to give us such great products. I'll not bash others products, but I like innovation. Don provided us with the super narrow aluminum wheels with the hex moved all the way to the outside. Which narrows track width. Others followed the trend. I like trend setters and innovation. I look forward to seeing more innovative products in the future from all vendors. DNA I hope your here to stay.

Thanks.
