i hear that to start with, the Wheely King is a good idea. Tlt is great, i love em for my scalers, but it actually hurts me to have a pair of axles on my comper, i really need to get me a wk comp rig, but heck, its already together..

but look, forget them, get ya an xc.. i loves em...

buy an axial kit from chip cross. he has 2 of them for no reason, he will sell you

that would be the best bet for you.

IMO, Mamba Max is the way to go just add a Castle BEC to it.
