rear toe in on the cyclone

[Lohan]

How do you sort out the rear toe in on the cyclone?

as you drivers ought to know I think the left toes in more than the right

is it a case of getting a 3 racing chassis, or are there different rear hub carriers

[Elad43]

there are pivot blocks available ranging from 1mm up to 3mm i think thats as high as they go , they also go up in .5mm increments

Hi Dale

no it's actually not a pivot block issue - I wish it was - it's actually a design fault of all cyclones

do tell , i have one and did not know about this lol only been racing a year though lol

the only way to sort this problem is to buy loads of plastic rear hubs and try sort a pair out to give same toe in at both sides or get some alloy ones from nick at demon job sorted

well after reading this thread i have noticed my touring has got this to and i swapped the uprights over and it moved over to the opposite side so it is deffinently the up rights aint it anyway i emailed hot bodies about it and this is the reply.

Dear Sir, You can find details of the optional alloy rear hubs for the Cyclonehere: http://www.hpiracing.co.uk/piw.php?partNo=67697

So after that i replied to them saying that i cant see why i should have to pay that much money to rectify a problem that is down to a design fault at ther end and they replied with this...

Dear Sir,



Unfortunately despite extensive testing we have not been able to replicate any issue with rear toe-in on the Cyclone; if however, you prefer the increased stiffness and accuracy of the alloy parts then these are available for you to purchase from your local model shop.



Kind Regards,

So as you can see they aint willing to help you out with the problem and they just want you to spend more money on there product which is pretty piss poor if you ask me.:mad:

Hi,

I have been running the rear HB alloy uprights on my Cyclone and they give perfect toe in. :)
