Key Features
- CNC-Machined Aluminium 7075 Construction — This rear hub is manufactured from aerospace-grade aluminium 7075, which offers an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio that is crucial for maintaining performance in 1:5 scale RC buggies without adding unnecessary mass to the rear axle assembly.
- Precision Engineering for LOSI DBXL E2.0 — Specifically designed and tested for compatibility with the Losi DBXL E2.0 electric buggy platform, ensuring perfect fitment and integration with your existing components without modification or adjustment required.
- Oversized Bearing Configuration — This rear hub comes equipped with two precision oversized bearings (28×12×8mm and 24×12×6mm), which distribute loads more effectively across the rear axle and deliver smoother, faster rotation with reduced friction and improved reliability during extended driving sessions.
- Multi-Vehicle Type Compatibility — Beyond the DBXL E2.0, this rear hub is engineered to work across multiple vehicle platforms including buggies, crawlers, drift cars, scale models, and short course trucks, making it a versatile upgrade for your RC collection.
- Electric-Powered Design — Optimised specifically for electric-powered RC vehicles, this rear hub is perfectly matched to the torque characteristics and performance envelopes of brushless motor systems used in modern 1:5 scale electric buggies.
- Colour Options for Customisation — Available in black, silver, or red, this rear hub allows you to match your RC car's aesthetic whilst upgrading its mechanical performance, giving you control over your buggy's visual presentation.

Technical Performance
The VITAVON LOSI DBXL E2.0 CNC aluminium 7075 Rear Hub represents a significant upgrade path for 1:5 scale RC buggy enthusiasts seeking improved durability and performance. Manufactured from aerospace-specification aluminium 7075, this material delivers exceptional stiffness and strength whilst maintaining a lightweight profile—a critical combination for maintaining your DBXL E2.0's handling characteristics and acceleration capabilities. The CNC-machining process ensures tolerances are held to precision specifications, eliminating the wobble or play that can develop in standard plastic hubs under the extreme forces experienced by 1:5 scale electric buggies during high-speed driving and aggressive cornering. The dual bearing system, featuring one 28×12×8mm oversized bearing and one 24×12×6mm oversized bearing, provides smooth rotation with minimal friction, which directly translates to longer runtime and improved efficiency from your LiPo battery pack. These oversized bearings also distribute bearing loads more effectively across a larger surface area, improving longevity and reducing the risk of bearing failure during competition or intense weekend bashing sessions. The aluminium 7075 material also offers superior heat dissipation compared to standard plastic components, helping manage the thermal stresses that can accumulate during extended driving. This rear hub is engineered specifically for the LOSI DBXL E2.0's performance envelope, ensuring compatibility with both factory and upgraded components you may already have fitted to your rig.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the VITAVON LOSI DBXL E2.0 rear hub suitable for beginners upgrading their RC buggy? — Yes, this is an excellent upgrade component for any RC enthusiast, whether you're new to upgrading your DBXL E2.0 or you're an experienced competitor. The hub is a direct replacement for factory components, requiring no special tools or technical knowledge beyond basic RC maintenance skills. Installation is straightforward, making it ideal for intermediate builders looking to improve their buggy's performance and durability without tackling complex modifications.
- Will this rear hub fit my LOSI DBXL E2.0 without modification? — Absolutely. This rear hub is engineered specifically for the LOSI DBXL E2.0 platform, ensuring perfect fitment and compatibility with all factory components. No modifications or adaptations are required—it's a direct bolt-in upgrade designed to integrate seamlessly with your existing setup.
- What is the advantage of aluminium 7075 over standard plastic rear hubs? — Aluminium 7075 offers several critical advantages: it's significantly stronger and more rigid than plastic, meaning less flex and more predictable handling characteristics; it dissipates heat more effectively, which is important during extended driving sessions; it resists wear better, extending the lifespan of your hub and bearings; and it provides superior support for the oversized bearings, resulting in smoother axle rotation and less friction.
- Can this rear hub be used on other LOSI platforms beyond the DBXL E2.0? — While this hub is specifically designed for the LOSI DBXL E2.0, it is also listed as compatible with other Losi DBXL platforms. For compatibility with other Losi models or brands, we recommend contacting our expert team at RC Model Shop to ensure proper fitment before purchasing.
- What bearing sizes are included and why do they matter? — This rear hub comes with two oversized bearings: a 28×12×8mm bearing and a 24×12×6mm bearing. Oversized bearings distribute loads across a larger surface area, resulting in smoother rotation, reduced friction, improved reliability, and longer service life compared to standard bearing sizes used in factory components.
- Which colour should I choose for my rear hub? — This rear hub is available in black, silver, and red. The default colour is silver. If you prefer a different colour, simply reply to your order confirmation specifying your colour choice, and we'll ensure you receive the finish you want for your RC buggy UK setup.
