Traxxas Aluminum Wheelie Bar Wheel

When it comes to riding wheelies, the Traxxas wheelie bar offers wild wheels-up excitement for the power hungry enthusiast. Traxxas is now offering an impressive set of red-anodized machined aluminum wheelie bar wheels with rubber tires. The precision 6061-T6 aluminum wheels feature a stunning red-anodized finish and they ride on rubber-sealed 5×8mm ball bearings. For controllable and seemingly never-ending wheelies, Traxxas developed a durable, soft compound rubber tire that reduces side-to-side movement for stable, consistent wheelies. The rubber tires also absorb shock to help keep the tires in contact with the ground. The rubber tires are available separately and they also install on the stock nylon wheels.

Traxxas Stampede front view

The Traxxas Stampede is back, this time the Stampede has a hot new look, innovative new features, and of course, more power to boost the fun quotient even higher. Combine the increased horsepower with the tall, drive-over-anything 4 inch ground clearance; ultra-tough suspension; and easy operation, the Traxxas Stampede will quickly become your favorite for all kinds of monster truck action.

The Traxxas Stampede benefits from it’s family lineage incorporating advanced Revo technology to bolster performance. The Magnum 272 transmission is fully sealed and comes equipped with efficient and precise ball bearings and an advanced Revo-spec Torque-Control slipper clutch. Revo-spec Talon 2.8″ tires provide sure-footed traction no matter how extreme the terrain is. The aggressive Talon tires are pre-glued and mounted on bold 2.8″ All-Star mirror-chrome wheels. Based on the proven Revo Talon tires, the versatile 2.8″ Talons grip the pavement, tear through rocks, and have the ability to kick-up massive roosts. The tires include performance-tuned foam inserts that provide extra stability on any surface.

Traxxas Tubes Aluminum Turnbuckles

Traxxas Tubes turnbuckles

Traxxas innovation strikes again with the introduction of Traxxas Tubes aluminum turnbuckle toe links for Revo. Traxxas Tubes are 30% lighter than the stock steel toe links, plus they’re 4-times stiffer and more than double the strength of aftermarket titanium! Simply put, these are the strongest toe links you can buy for your Revo. The secret is in the unique patent-pending hollow tube design that maximizes stiffness and resistance to bending, while at the same time reducing weight. Plus, the beefy size tells everyone your Revo means business. Traxxas Tubes are manufactured from high-grade 7075-T6 aluminum and anodized brilliant fire red. To prevent marring the finish, a metric aluminum wrench is included for adjustment. The broad center nut makes it easy to line up the wrench for fast, trackside tuning. A handy machined groove on one end easily identifies the left hand threads.
