Element Utron Build Series - Ball Bearings
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 жов 2024
- Since the Element Utron is based on the Enduro SE platfrom, it means that the rig is more budget oriented in order to hit that $299 price point. With the Enduro SE platform you see cost cutting such as bushings being used instead of ball bearings. While bushings are durable and maintenance free, they're not the most efficient for the drivetrain and they can make the drivetrain a bit noisier. In this video I go over all the bushings that need to be replaced with bearings as well as the sizes.
You'll need the following bearings.

I'll be following along while building out my own Utron
I'll be working on it soon again. Just got back from vacation!
What is the benefit of replacing those with bearings?
Swapping to bearings will give you a quieter and more efficient drivetrain. Given that, you can certainly still run with the bushings without any issue. At least with the bushings you'd have to worry less about maintenance. 🤙
@@RevolutionX with bushings less maintenance? Why?
@@mauriciodelvalle4648 It's less maintenance, because you don't really have to worry about rust or keeping them oiled and clean.
@@RevolutionX interesting ... I have a gatekeeper a redcat gen 8 and trx4 bronco I have never put oil on them because I thought they could get dirty on those áreas.. duat+oil no good idea.. but maybe Im wrong and I need to put oil.. I will research about this
@@RevolutionX thanks for sharing
