Racing-Oriented Bearing Upgrade for Tamiya CR01

Specifically targeted at tuners and racers, the 3RACING BS-CR01/V1 full ball bearing set replaces plain bushes in the Tamiya CR01 with precision bearings to lower mechanical losses and improve repeatable performance under load.

Technical Advantages

Precision bearings reduce rolling resistance and drivetrain hysteresis, which helps maintain consistent throttle response and reduces heat build-up in high rpm situations. Bearings also provide more predictable wear patterns for easier tuning.

Installation and Setup Notes

Install bearings in wheel hubs, gearbox assemblies and rotating pivots, ensuring concentric seating to avoid preload and misalignment. For competitive setups, verify each bearing runs true and consider light high-quality grease to balance protection and low friction.

Which drivetrain points yield the biggest gains?

Wheel hubs and gearbox output shafts typically deliver the largest reductions in friction and the most noticeable handling improvements.

Any bearing prep recommended before fitting?

Clean bearing housings, check shaft runout, and use a minimal high-speed grease or oil to protect seals without increasing drag.

How do bearings affect tuning choices?

Lower drivetrain losses can change effective gearing and throttle feel, so retune gear ratios and throttle curves if chasing precise lap time improvements.
