K1 Lowered Shock Towers
 
I was having at look through some of the set ups on Petit RC, and noticed James Helliwell's set up for Batley Indoors has Lowered Towers. Anyone know how much these towers are lowered? Are they drilled and trimmed to fit? Ta.

I understand these are from the Aero kit and negates the need to run the 3/4 ball cups that some have been running

2mm lower, but you are correct they are standard on the Aero.

Whats the advantage of having 2mm lower towers

I would say lower c of g and 2mm more droop

Droop is the main factor, as it removes the need to run long ball cups on the shock - therefore not loosing any shock travel.

Also the new shock top guards only fit with these towers on the k1 not the origional ones as i have found out

I have the nut guards on my original k1

spud31 22-12-2013 08:25 PM

How?
the screw holes are too high on nut guards for my towers so dont line up
