NEW!!! Slim Shifts, Adjustable Hubs

Due to customer feedback I have had a small batch of Slim Shifts fabricated for you guys. These offer the same functionality as the original Shift Hubs in a smaller package. These hubs offer a stock offset of .225" which can be increased using the included spacers. They're also 25% lighter than the original Shift Hubs, weighing in at 3 grams a piece.

A set of 4 hubs with your spacers is $40, you can also add custom anodizing for $10.

Send me a PM to get your hands on some of these short run (no pun intended) Slim Shifts, first come first serve.

There are also plenty of the Original Shift Hubs available.

Any tried these on a set of losi axels yet

BC-Brian 06-09-2013 07:03 PM

Re: Presenting Shifts, Lightweight n' Flexible Offset Hubs
 
I have them on my losi. The pins on the stock LNC are 1.5mm so there is a little bit of slop in the pin. They work pretty good but the slop is a bit annoying. If it was going on a hardcore comp 2.2s Rig then I could see it being annoying.

Trying to think of a way to take up the gap without having to make custom hubs for the Losi.

wonder if you could drill out the hole in the shaft and use axial pins? might not be the best idea as it might compromise strength, but it would probably be ok.

Re: Presenting Shifts, Lightweight n' Flexible Offset Hubs
 
I thought about that. I was a little worried that it would jam up on the axle side, but there is probably enough play in there that it would be able to tolerate the larger diameter. It was mostly because I didn't have the balls to drill my losi shafts, and didn't want to buy new ones if I botched it :mrgreen:

Yeah this was exactly my prob. And since the factory hexes are discontinued this looked like an awesome idea. I'm gonna drill. Any body know what size the axials are. What size bit to use?

Re: Presenting Shifts, Lightweight n' Flexible Offset Hubs
 
The shifts are designed for a 2mm pin.

Hope that helps.

I drilled my losis out with a 5/64 bit. It was long and slow be carefull not to break the bit but the 2 mm axial rod slides right on with no slop. Now just need some cash to pick up a set of these

Awesome man, glad to hear it turned out well. Breaking a bit off in your axle would have sucked :shock:

Drop me a PM when you are ready.
