Center shafts are dog bones. The front AND rear bulkheads are angled to mate better with the center diff. This minimized drive angles, reduced wear (less friction), and increased efficiency.

CV's have extra parts and mass that we didn't think was necessary.

This is great news, im glad to see a company that listens to there customers. You all just hit it way out of the park. I've been looking for a brand that had every class and a good product. I've been running Mugen since I started in 2004 and I currently run the mbx7. If the NB48 handles anything close to my x7. I'm switching and getting everything Tekno. Good Job!!!

34mm flywheel. 4-shoe clutch setup. Clutch bells should be compatible with Losi. Our bell will feature a different bearing setup that should be a little more durable than current offerings. More info on that later.

These figures and release date are going to be more solidified in the coming months. Truggy prices are not yet determined but we are hoping for sub 700 price tag along with the buggy.

A friend of mine has the eb48.
Will most major parts, like a-arms be the same as the eb48 or is the whole car completely different?
Just wondering for having both cars u could get away with having one lot of spare parts for both...

Will the new rear bulkhead be backwards compatible with the EB48?

We kept as many parts in common as possible, so yes, you will have fewer spares in your box. That said we did not compromise the nitro platform in any way. It is purpose built nitro machine.

The NB48 rear bulkhead is offset and angled. The EB48 bulk is centered and straight out. However we have a new centered and angled bulkhead on the ET48 that is compatible with the EB48. The new bulkhead should be available separately soon.
