Short centre brace for GTX rear mounting

This carbon rear top deck provides a compact link between the centre two-speed assembly and the rear aluminium brace mount on compatible GTX 2026 flat chassis layouts. Its reduced length targets rear chassis flex without introducing excess mass, helping to stabilise drive loads and maintain traction consistency across changing surfaces.

Manufactured from precision carbon fibre, the brace balances rigidity and lightness. Tuners will find it alters rear flex bias, often resulting in more predictable handling when applying power out of corners and smoother transfer of load to the rear wheels. The placement reduces drivetrain torsion between the centre gearbox region and the rear brace position, aiding lap to lap consistency.

Experienced builders familiar with GTX rear assemblies will find installation straightforward. Ensure the centre two-speed mount and rear aluminium brace mount are correctly aligned; inspect contact faces for flatness and make sure fasteners seat uniformly. Avoid excessive torque and confirm drivetrain rotation to ensure no binding was introduced during fitting.

Specifications

  • Item: GTX Carbon Center Mounting Rear Brace - Short - Flat Chassis
  • Material: Carbon fiber
  • Model Number: 354258
  • Compatibility: GTX 2026

For GTX 2026 setups where a compact, stiff connection is required between the centre gearbox and rear brace mount, this short carbon brace gives a focused way to adjust rear flex and support drivetrain stability without a major weight increase.

Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some XRAY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.
Fitting the short brace shifts rear flex bias toward a stiffer link between the gearbox and rear mount. Expect a firmer rear feel under acceleration and a more consistent load transfer, which helps with corner exit predictability.
It depends on desired balance. This short brace is a targeted change; combining it with additional bracing will further stiffen the rear and may require suspension tuning to retain good mechanical grip.
The brace is positioned to reduce drivetrain twist between the centre gearbox and rear mount, improving repeatability. The magnitude depends on your overall chassis layout and other stiffening elements.
After fitting, run a few low-speed passes to assess corner exit and traction consistency, then adjust sway and damper settings as needed to harmonise the new rear bias with the rest of the chassis.
