    Gearing

    Hi Guys I've got a few questions about gearing for my Axial Wraith. I've got a Crawl master 16t and torque-master brxl on order, i'm guessing from what i've heard I will need to change my gearing. Do I get a choice on what type of gearing I use because i've heard that the wrong gearing can...
