RC Drag Bike
Guys - new to this forum but have had quite a few rc cars over the years. I am finding it really hard to find a 1/8th drag bike out there . There was some one called Rob from Shred X RC who used to make bike but I have no luck in finding him. Can any one assist me - thanks

Shredder X disappeared a few years ago, though the bikes do occasionaly pop up for sale.
New Era made one too, though it would appear to be long out of production. http://neweramodels.mybigcommerce.com/ Here is a brief thread about the bike with a piccie. Beyond that, I think it will down to the shed to make your own, or adapt a production bike to suit. |

Don't forget that you are also in Oz biker territory.
If nothing else, go see Scaulfi and the lads. They can offer you more information than can be easily digested via a forum. Their racing thread is here. |

fossil056, contact scaulfi on the Australian thread. He has built at least one drag bike that i know of and has been working on a larger one for a while also. Might be able to give you a few tips on design etc.
BTW, he is up there in Brisbane also. Eden |
