Atomic Aluminum Wheels for the Mini-z MotoRacer
I received a set of Atomic’s new wheels for the Mini-Z Moto.
I hadn’t put much thought around it but I realized that these are in
fact aluminum wheels while the stock Mini-z Moto wheels are cast out of a
heavier metal. On a Mini-Z, switching to an aluminum wheel you rarely
end up saving weight. Would the weight savings translate to lower
rotational mass and quicker acceleration? Would a motorcycle’s handling
greatly be impacted by lower the weight of the wheels? Let’s find out!

Mini-Z Quick Change Rear Wheel Nut
In cooperation with Reflex Racing, MC3 and Reflex Racing have created the "Quick Change Rear Wheel Nut".
Basically, the wheel nut allows for a quick swap of rear wheels between sides to alleviate uneven tire wear, which can be accomplished easily and quickly between racing heats.
This product is for use on the axle side (non-gear side)
that normally uses a plastic bushing and requires use of a 3x6x2.5mm bearing to work.
There are additional benefits as well such as:
- rim and bearing will last longer as you are no longer popping the bearing in/out of the rim
- integrated wheel nut- say goodbye to lost wheel nuts (note- need to put threadlock on diff shaft)
- engineered to let bearings run smoothly; no pressure on inner race
