infinite_loop · **Wing as wheelie bar? -** 05.09.2006, 12:55 AM

I've read that some people use a wing as a wheelie bar as well. Is this a good idea? How durable is this? Will the wing hold up okay doing wheelies on various terrains - asphalt, grass, dirt?

I currently have the New Era wheelie bar and it tends to bend. I was looking at the one from rcwheeliebars.com, but am thinking it would bend on a bad landing on it as well. So I'm looking for an alternative, and came across people using a wing.

If this is a good alternative, I know I would need to get a rear shock tower that has built in wing mounting holes. Does the FLM shock tower work? If so, is the "Mugen MBX5 Prospec Rear Wing Mount Set" the one I need (along with a Pro-Line wing)?
