RPM parts for truggies - Biodragen - 12-08-2005

Not sure if this was the best place to post here--if not it will be moved.


Anyway I know there are a few Sportwerks owners out there myself included.

I called RPM today to see if they will or are going to make some parts for these trucks and buggies.
At this point no, They do carry for the Losi LST.

It was told to me the more ppl that bug them about making parts they will seriously consider making them if the demand is high for them. The more ppl e-mail and call the better chance.
So if you want some RPM parts like I do e-mail them here

Keep e-mailing them.

I am not happy with the stock parts Sportwerks has because they are a little to stiff and have no give or some flex.
I have already broken right front upper arm twice and the lower right rear arm once.
I am amazed at how thick they are but it does not actually take that much to snap one.

E-Mail sent! Although I think the stockers are pretty tough.

They are not that bad but the RPM stuff is made of different material that will not break or snap as easily.


I just met the front bumper on a savage and it was for sure not a hard hit---I broke the upper a arm. This was already the replacement part from hitting a fence which makes more sense.

The Stock parts are stiffer and harder.

stiffer and hard, less flex= good for racing if your a decent driver that can keep it on the track

softer and flexible, more flex= good for bashing or if you crash alot on the track

Also remember the cold outside will cause the stock plastic pieces to become very brittle
