I have no loyalty to brand so will consider anything. Whats worth spending on?

I'm also trying to work out pinion size. It's for an indoor carpet track with a 40-60m straight. Does the kit come with different spur sizes or will I have to buy extra and should I go for 48 dp or 64 dp?

Is there a detailed build log/vid out there with any good gems for this kit? Any help and advice welcome.

Cheers

Tom
I have had a lot of success with the Speed Passion Reventon Pro...It works well in 17.5, 13.5 and modified. Really smooth and very powerful.

For 13.5 I would suggest a 100 tooth 64p spur and about a 43-45 tooth pinion.

Get ECSs in the front...and titanium turnbuckles for the steering links. Other than that kit stuff works very well. A spring kit is good to have...
