Technical Overview of the SSG Graphite Front Tower

The Hot Bodies Cyclone Sport Front SSG Graphite Shock Tower by 3Racing CY-12S/SG is engineered to provide a consistent, stiff mounting platform for front shocks on the Cyclone Sport. The SSG graphite material was selected to maintain a controlled flex profile while minimising added mass, aiding lap-to-lap consistency.

Performance and Setup Considerations

SSG graphite gives predictable deflection characteristics that affect roll centre behaviour and steering response. When installing, evaluate damping and spring choices to harmonise the stiffer front end with the rest of the chassis for optimal corner entry and mid-corner balance.

Fitment and Installation Notes

The component matches the original Cyclone Sport mounting pattern for direct replacement. During installation, use correct torque on fasteners and check shock alignment to avoid preload or binding that could mask the true handling changes introduced by the 3Racing CY-12S/SG tower.

What tuning steps follow fitting this tower?

Start by retaining current settings, then test for understeer or oversteer. Typically soften front damping incrementally or adjust camber to restore preferred turn-in if steering sharpens notably.

Any specific inspection after competitive events?

Check bolt holes for ovalisation, inspect edges for micro cracks and verify there is no shift in shock mounting geometry. Replace the tower if any structural compromise is detected.

How does this part integrate with tuning upgrades?

The 3Racing CY-12S/SG pairs well with higher-spec shocks and stiffer front anti-roll bars; treat it as part of a holistic setup change and test incrementally to find optimal balance for racing conditions.
