The BD12 predominant chassis has a shallower dish than earlier than and the thickness across the screws has been elevated for enhanced sturdiness. The spacer for adjusting the peak of the suspension mount additionally makes use of a big diameter kind to diffuse the stress in a crash and forestall harm to the primary chassis.
Redesigned by altering the spur gear, which was conventionally 110T and is now 90T. And the motor mount was lowered to present it a decrease middle of gravity.
As well as, by transferring the motor nearer to the middle of the chassis, mass is concentrated, pitching movement is decreased, and stability throughout acceleration and deceleration is enhanced.
The damper cap, cylinder and damper finish have been redesigned to make it extra compact.
By putting in a bearing within the spring cup and releasing the torsion of the spring throughout the stroke, it’s doable to attract out the unique efficiency of the spring linearly.
