| Mancaves berg WIP
So it's been a few years since I've been out of the comp world i figured come out of the gate swinging with as light of weight as possible berg that I could get. With that being said I've ordered carbon wheels dbl deuce 6.0t comp cut CI foams and plan on going all carbon fiber with a mutt chassis and axles and new titanium links. Currently it's running modded berg axles with super 300 fronts beefy rears boss claws smashed micro sidewinders bec with servo bypass harness 7950th servo vp knuckles pink label broods and a ytown bj4 chassis. Here's a few pics until the wheels arrive and my 4pk which I'll have to remember how to use. I'm gonna need a lot of input since I've forgotten so much about bergs Fresh out of the box Poser shots |

I wonder if the purple loctite thing is their anaerobic gasket maker. It's purple I think it's called loctite 515. Works really well on motorcycle gaskets... Interesting

| Re: Mancaves berg WIP I've used it on a couple Kawi gaskets before and it does do a great job so i'd day that its used for easier removal of the tire and less chance to rip the bead ungluing them
