Wheels rubbing on EB48.4

[Nicochau]

Hi guys,

I'm experiencing rubbing of the front hinge pins on a majority of the buggy wheels I own. Is this a known problem/limitation?

TLRs are the only ones that fit (barely). GRP and a majority of the generic stuff I own, doesn't.

Looking for on-road options. Thanks,

You should check your wheel base. I myself use the slicks from GRP for on-road. And yes the diameter is a bit smaller then a Proline off-road buggy wheel.

The flexibility of the wheels are the main thing I guess inc. with the smaller diameter.
The harder you ride the more flex is going arise and more wheel will appear on the hinge pins.

Just my own experience and thought about it. ✌?

Hi all,

Problem solved with two simple tips:

1/ Dremel the hinge pin

2/ turn turnbuckle screw upside down for better clearance
