Sturdy 32T pinion for OPTIMA performance

The Kyosho OTW161 final pinion is crafted from hardened steel to give OPTIMA builds a more robust drivetrain. With 32 teeth, this pinion improves torque transfer and reduces the rate of tooth deformation under heavy use. A sensible upgrade for club racers and weekend bashing alike.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho 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.

Will the OTW161 fit when I use aftermarket spurs?

Compatibility depends on spur tooth count and shaft spacing. The OTW161 is a 32T pinion so pairing it with a matching spur and correct mesh is essential for smooth operation.

What are the benefits of the Kyosho OTW161 over nylon pinions?

Steel pinions like the OTW161 resist stripping and wear better than nylon, giving more predictable gear engagement and longer service intervals when used in performance setups.

Any tips for installing the OTW161?

Set a precise gear mesh with a feeler or shim method, tighten grub screws securely, and recheck mesh after a short break-in run to confirm clearance remains correct.
