I've seen your thread, but although I have Mayhem wheelsand I am highly satisfied, the chassis is of no thought for me personally. The same vor the VP chassis. :)
The SWX is a good time on the market, maybe there are newer and better designs?

In my opinion, most sprung chassis (such as the wedge and gc3a) are pretty much just a matter of taste. They all can be setup to perform well, and when it comes down to it, the main diggerence is asthetics & space (for electronics and dig setups.)

The only other real consideration that needs to be accounted for is the completeness of the chassis kit. Some come with uppers and lowers, some don't. Some come with hardware, some don't.

I would suggest that you find some build threads on here, compare them, and choose what feels right.

Well, I studied the SSS-R threads and liked the chassis more and more. It is a little eerie in looks, that point would fit me well :)

I've sent BWD an email and a pn but didn't receive an answer :(

The Wedge with it taper design (low front, higher back) looks very fashionable, the GC3A seems a little more conventional.

I would like a complete chassis-kit, albeit sooner or later some modifications will follow ;)

But to dial in all the link-geometry with the only starting point of the chassis-sides is too much for me, for now...

So I'm still a little biased with the favorite Gatekeeper!

How much do you rate a taper design?
The height of the Gatekeeper chassis-plates seems a little much, but maybe I'm just wrong?

Looking forward for your replys ;)
