Technical Performance
The LOS 38T Ring and 12T Pinion Gear set represents genuine Losi engineering designed specifically for the 1/6 scale Super Baja Rey platform. The gear ratio created by this 38:12 combination is carefully calculated to provide optimal performance for the brushless motor found in the SBR 2.0 4WD configuration. The ring and pinion gears are precision-machined components that require exact tolerances to ensure smooth meshing and efficient power transfer. These components are engineered to handle the substantial torque output of a 1/6 scale brushless desert truck system, where power demands are significant during acceleration from standstill and throughout high-speed running. The gears are manufactured from hardened steel materials that resist wear and stripping even under demanding driving conditions. Whether you're navigating rocky terrain, hammering across sand, or bashing through your local RC track, these drivetrain components maintain their integrity and performance characteristics. The front and rear application means both your forward and rearward differential assemblies can operate with matching gear ratios, ensuring balanced handling and predictable performance in all driving situations.
