Our dual idler portals are a serious game changer.
What is a Dual Idler?
Perfection takes time. After years of research and development; weve made our dual idler gear portals unlike any other. By placing a second idler gear in the portal box; the load gets spread over twice as much surface area for more reliable torque transfer and the strongest gear set you can get. Two idler gears dont do a thing if theyre not mated perfectly; though. Precision CNC grinding ensures ours do. Our gears are made from the industrys toughest 9310 steel alloy.
Ride on any Terrain
Your ride feel can change with a gear reduction. Go with 30% if you want quicker speeds without losing torque. If your tires are bigger and the trails are rough; 45% gives you the boost and control you need to handle it all. Build the supreme off-road beast with a 60% gear reduction; then amplify its strength using dual idler gears.
Less Strain on Your Drivetrain
