Key Features
- Precision-Machined Aluminium Construction — This brake disc is manufactured from quality aluminium and machined with precision engineering to deliver crisp, clean detailing that stands out from the standard plastic part included with your Promoto-MX. The precision machining process ensures consistent quality and a professional appearance that genuinely improves how your RC motorcycle looks.
- Silver Finish for Visual Impact — The distinctive silver finish provides a noticeably different look compared to the stock plastic rear brake disc, instantly giving your Promoto-MX a more premium and refined appearance. This colour choice complements modern RC motorcycle aesthetics and works well with both red and blue Promoto variants.
- Direct Replacement Design — This is a direct replacement for the stock rear brake disc, meaning it's engineered to fit perfectly without any cutting, drilling, or modification required. Simply remove the original part and install the RC Overhaul disc in its place—no specialist tools or knowledge needed.
- No Modification Required for Installation — One of the key selling points of this upgrade is the simplicity of installation. Because it's designed as a drop-in replacement, you can upgrade your Promoto-MX in minutes without needing to modify the frame, mounting points, or any other part of your motorcycle. This makes it accessible to all skill levels.
- Cost-Effective Visual Upgrade — At under £15, this aluminium brake disc offers exceptional value for money as a cosmetic upgrade that genuinely improves the perceived quality and appearance of your Promoto-MX. It's an affordable way to give your bike a more premium look without investing in major modifications or expensive tuning parts.
- Compatible with Multiple Promoto Models — This brake disc is officially compatible with the Losi Promoto-MX in multiple variants including the FXR (Red), Pro Circuit, and Club MX (Blue) versions, as well as the Promoto-SM FXR Supermoto model. This broad compatibility makes it a versatile upgrade choice for Promoto owners in the UK RC motorcycle community.
Technical Performance
The RC Overhaul Aluminium Rear Brake Disc represents a thoughtful engineering approach to visual upgrading. Manufactured from aluminium rather than the plastic found on stock Promoto-MX models, this component delivers improved durability and a genuinely premium feel. The precision machining process creates sharp, clean edges and surfaces that catch light beautifully, transforming the rear end of your RC motorcycle. The aluminium material offers better heat dissipation properties compared to plastic, which can be beneficial during extended riding sessions or competitive racing. The silver anodised finish resists fingerprints and minor scuffs better than plastic, keeping your upgrade looking fresh and professional for longer. Being a direct replacement component, it maintains perfect compatibility with all standard Promoto-MX and Promoto-SM drivetrain and chassis components, ensuring that fitment is guaranteed without any compatibility concerns. The engineering is straightforward but effective—this is about quality materials and attention to detail rather than complex mechanics, making it an ideal choice for anyone looking to enhance their Promoto without adding complexity to their RC motorcycle setup.
