MR-02 Rear Suspension help

[TallduDe]

hey guys.

As a few of you guys would know i bought a Mr-02RM and i have put on a hard carbon h-plate for it and a better spring for the friction shock.

but i feel this might not be enuff to enable better handling.

So as i was searching the net i found the following suspension options.

the second one is the tradition roll shock set up but the second is a disc set up. which one is the better option?

the disc option looks cool but they are expensive any ideas on which is the better set up or even better does anyone have any expeirence with either set up.

cheers

any help at all?

i mite be wrong but from the way i think that disk shock doesnt look like it provides much dampening on the sides wen ur turning. but thats just my perspective.

[TallduDe]

i dont know either but appearently jap and hk racers use em?

so they must be good for something?

thats why im asking now :question:

i’ll go look at mini-zracer.com for ya. i noe that have their worth somewhere, but going with roll shocks are a safe way to go but i’ll look into it for u

the disk set up looks cheap but if it works…

Hmm, read somewhere where it’s suppose to properly dampen the springs rebound properly not like roll shocks where you’re relying on the grease on the pins to do the dampening for you.

I notice that when these first came out, they were quite pricey, but now they’re getting more affordable. When you add up roll shock set + rear damper spring, for one of these disc dampers, I think you’d be paying the same amount of money dude.

i’ll no doubt go with Kyosho product, but would’nt mind getting some feedback from someone who’s used both
