Capricorn LAB P12 Evo International front end kit

Coming from Capricorn is a new front end for their 1/12th scale chassis that can also be used across other platforms. Composed of a hybrid setup with a carbon lower arms and composite upper arms, the set will make for a stiffer front end which has proven to perform a lot better in high traction conditions. The carbon lower arm is also more accurate compared to a moulded arm and will not twist in the event of a crash. In addition the design allows the use of optional lower arms, resulting in a more precise setup for different track conditions. The fixing points of the lower arms to the chassis are of a 38.5mm spacing so the front end will be a direct bolt to most other 1/12th chassis also.
