Tough Urethane Guard for XV-02 Chassis

The Tamiya 51701 urethane bumper gives XV-02 owners a resilient front guard that helps reduce damage from knocks and collisions. Its urethane makeup offers controlled flex to protect mounting points and nearby components during rough use.

Usage Advice and Compatibility

This bumper installs as a simple swap onto the XV-02 chassis and requires no custom trimming. The material soaks up impact energy and helps keep internal parts intact, making it a solid choice for both track and off-road play. For fitting with other kits, always check the Tamiya R/C Parts Matching List for confirmed compatibility.

Will this bumper change handling on the XV-02?

The bumper's weight is minimal and should not noticeably alter handling. Its role is protective rather than performance tuning, so expect the same chassis balance once fitted.

How do I maintain a urethane bumper?

Keep the bumper free of grit and check for deep cuts after heavy use. Clean with mild soap and water, and replace if you notice severe gouges that could expose mounting points.

Is this part suitable for both racing and bashing?

Yes. The Tamiya 51701 bumper is suited to track environments and casual off-road bashing thanks to its impact absorbing properties and easy installation.
