- Direct Micro-B Compatibility — Engineered specifically for the Losi 1/24 Micro-B 2WD Buggy platform, these hubs ensure precise fitment and optimal performance without requiring modifications or workarounds during installation.
- Quality Aftermarket Component — Manufactured by RC Overhaul, a trusted brand in the RC upgrade market, these hubs deliver the kind of precision engineering and attention to detail that enthusiasts expect from dedicated RC performance parts.
- Wear Replacement Solution — Whether you're replacing worn original components or refreshing your buggy after extended use, these hubs offer a straightforward upgrade path that directly improves rear-end durability and performance.
- Universal Colour Compatibility — Compatible with both white and silver Losi 1/24 Micro-B 2WD Buggy RTR variants, ensuring these hubs work with either colour scheme of this popular ready-to-run platform.
Technical Performance
The RC Overhaul Aluminium Rear Hubs represent a significant step up from standard plastic components commonly found on entry-level micro-scale RC buggies. Aluminium hubs offer substantially improved rigidity and durability, which translates directly into more consistent handling characteristics during competitive running or casual bashing sessions. The material choice reflects professional-grade engineering—aluminium has long been the standard in serious RC racing because it resists deformation under load, maintains dimensional accuracy through extended use, and dissipates heat more effectively than plastic alternatives. For the Losi 1/24 Micro-B platform specifically, upgrading to aluminium rear hubs addresses one of the most stress-prone areas of the chassis, where lateral forces during cornering and braking put tremendous pressure on the hub assembly. By switching to aluminium construction, you're investing in components that will maintain their integrity through hundreds of competitive runs or casual bash sessions. The engineering is straightforward and proven—these aren't experimental components, but rather time-tested solutions that have demonstrated their value across the micro-scale RC community. When combined with other quality chassis upgrades, aluminium rear hubs contribute to the kind of refined, responsive handling that separates upgraded micro buggies from stock examples.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these RC rear hubs suitable for beginners upgrading their first Micro-B buggy? — Absolutely. These aluminium rear hubs are an ideal first upgrade for anyone new to RC car customisation. They require no special tools or technical knowledge to install, and the improvement in durability and handling is immediately noticeable. If you've just purchased a Losi 1/24 Micro-B 2WD Buggy RTR and want to enhance its performance, these hubs represent an excellent entry-level upgrade that directly addresses wear concerns on stock plastic components.
- What is the specific compatibility for these Micro-B rear hubs? — These hubs are designed for the Losi 1/24 Micro-B 2WD Buggy RTR, including both the white (part number C-LOS00007T1) and silver (part number C-LOS00007T2) variants. They will not fit other micro-scale platforms or larger Losi models, so confirm your buggy model before ordering.
- Why should I upgrade from plastic to aluminium rear hubs on my micro buggy? — Plastic hubs on stock micro buggies can wear, crack, or deform under the stresses of competitive running or aggressive bashing. Aluminium hubs resist deformation, maintain their dimensional accuracy through extended use, and dissipate heat more effectively. The result is more consistent handling, improved chassis responsiveness, and components that will last significantly longer before requiring replacement.
- Do I need any special tools or expertise to install these hubs? — These are option parts designed for direct fitment to the Losi 1/24 Micro-B platform. Installation requires only basic RC tools and mechanical knowledge. If you're comfortable performing routine maintenance on your RC car, you'll have no difficulty installing these hubs.
- How do these hubs improve my Micro-B's performance? — By providing a more rigid, durable rear-end assembly, these aluminium hubs improve the overall structural integrity of your buggy's chassis. This results in more predictable handling, reduced flex during cornering, and better overall responsiveness. Over the course of extended running sessions, you'll notice improved consistency and control, particularly in high-speed cornering situations.
- Are these genuine RC Overhaul parts or aftermarket copies? — When you purchase from RC Model Shop, you're buying genuine RC Overhaul components. We are an authorised retailer of quality RC brands, and all parts supplied carry manufacturer warranty and authenticity guarantees.
