For pilots wanting crisper handling on the 4-X chassis, the Serpent 401711 Purple springs offer a reliable C8.4 rate. These springs are intended to give a firmer response that helps with steering accuracy and consistent feedback through corners. The purple colour also makes them easy to sort when changing setups trackside.
The C8.4 stiffness gives a controlled feel that reduces excessive roll and improves rebound control, which helps drivers maintain traction during directional changes. This is useful when tuning for technical or flowing tracks.
These Serpent 401711 springs are compatible with the 4-X chassis and are a good choice for racers replacing tired springs or searching for a firmer baseline setup. They suit club races and practice where consistent behaviour is needed lap after lap.
Try combining the purple C8.4 with other Serpent rates to find the balance you want. Options like Spring White C4.4, Spring Yellow C4.9 or Spring Green C9.5 can be used to tailor front to rear balance depending on surface and driver preference.
