Losi’s New 2.2 Class Crawler
- 0 Comments
This is one of those I expected it but didn’t see it coming deals for me. It was natural to expect a 2.2 crawler from Losi, after all they have been making option parts for a while and their crawler tires and shocks are some of the best out there, I just did not expect to see it until next year. Well, in reality we won’t see it until next year. I pre-ordered mine today and the expected fulfillment date is late February to early March 2009. At least in this area of the country, Wisconsin, that is still before the outdoor season starts so I can see if I will have a new gladiator on the rocks or if the trusty Black Widow will soldier on.
So, the new 1/10 Comp Crawler Race Roller is a factory built comp rig for the 2.2 class that is a roller much like Axial’s popular ARTR rig but with some important pluses, at least from the specs…
Some highlights of the new Losi crawler are:
- A factory DIG!
- Worm gear drive solid axles
- Factory 4-link suspension
- Real beadlock wheels with aluminum outer rings
- Rock Claw Tires
- Ready for installation of the electronics of your choice
- Factory front CV axles
- Losi Crawler Shocks
- Adjustable shock mounts
Notice in that list several performance options that are accessories or aftermarket parts on other rigs.
The new 1/10 Comp Crawler Race Roller is Losi part number LOSA0051

Looks like well thought out gear areas.
