Low Boyz 2.2 Weighted Pendulum Beadlock Wheel
 
does anyone have any experiance with the Low Boyz 2.2 Weighted Pendulum Beadlock Wheel
do these wheels seem to work well or do they get gummed up and quit moving smoothly.

I had a set. They always swung freely, but the pendulums didn't weigh enough for me. They would work on a light rig, but not so great on a heavier rig. Look at the mayhem or the vanquish wheels. I think that you will be happier with those.

i just mounted my hb rovers on a set of the low boys and i'm running a lcc,so far i like them.The only thing so far i don't like is there is no vent whole in rim,the weight set up that you can unscew to lightn up doesn't even add up to 1.0 oz so i ended up pulling the rear weight assembly out to get light enough but other then that the off set is a little wider and they look great"thumbsup"

Well that sounds to me like there needs to be a version II of the LB WP Wheels made.

#1 Vent holes
(Seriously no way to let the tires breath?! That's RC rim 101 stuff...)

#2 Pendulum/Rims with more of a Dynamic Weight distribution engineered into them.
(Every crawler is different and it stands to reason weight distro be incorporated into rim design. Otherwise Pendulum is a great idea but mainly hype if its not adjustable over 1oz.)

Wow these looked real cool but I guess I'll go for a more traditonal rim now!:twisted:
