Yes. I said the HPI OEM ones were pricey. HPI 77127 is what I was shopping for the other day. I ended up getting the RRP version for $20. I can't even find 77127 on ebay now.Well E Bay has the sets cheap enuff if one is willing to look around a bit....

I went Robinson long time ago and don't miss the weak link whatsoever.I am not that much of an expert on this stuff but I am very much against steel spurs. The plastic spur simply acts as a weak link and when it is destroyed, it prevents other stuff from getting damaged.

Yeah, just snapped my rear bone in my X yesterday... didn't even land that hard, but was coming out of a wreck and was tapping the throttle to get it to end up on the wheels. Guessing the tires were still spinning hard.Ditto. Same spur and CB for years without issue. Setup the mesh properly and don't land jumps on the throttle and it shouldn't be an issue.
If changing it change the bell gear with itWhat do you guys think? Does it need replaced?
isn't that the high performance lightweight, more aerodynamic spur gear mod? lolWhat do you guys think? Does it need replaced?
Where did you find the 47t steel spur? I have been looking for one for my savage XL and can't find them anywhere online...they just don't seem to make them or stock them anywhere?!Personally, I wouldn't run a steel spur if I didn't have to. However, it seems that when I went with higher gearing than 47/15, I couldn't get the slipper to not slip. Even after roughing up the disks and replacing the pad. I'd tighten it until the spring was fully compressed and it would be fine for a bit, then after a tank or so of running in grass, it would slip and melt the center out of the spur. 49/15 was fine. Was like it just was too much leverage on the slipper with taller gearing.
I run 47/16 now with the HPI steel spur and hardened bell. The steel HPI spurs are pricey to find though. $30+. I just bought a RRP 47T to try on my flux with 6S... not sure it will fit, but was $20, so figured I'd give it a try.
