Losi Promoto-Mx 1/4 Motorcycle Rtr, Clubmx Scheme

Big or small, no dirt bike would look right without a proper body panel kit wrapped in vinyl graphics. The promoto-mx has all the goods â front fender, number plate, fork guards, front side panel, rear side panel, and rear fender â all looking fresh wrapped in officially licensed vinyl graphics, but highly durable and ready to get dirty

Even tiny touches matter, and losi hasn't overlooked a thing. Brake and clutch levers, exhaust, brake line, foot pegs, brake rotors, you name it â everything about the promoto-mx is finely detailed

There's nothing better than sending a huge triple, but what happens if you come up short? bending a fork leg or tube was not an option, so the promoto-mx product development team found a solution. The front crash structure is rigid during normal running, but compresses until the front tire bottoms into the chassis frame to absorb those massive front impacts. That protects the front fork tubes from bending, keeping them safe and true

Wheelies happen. A normal, rigid-mounted rear fender would really take a beating. But the promoto-mx has the solution â a hinged elastomer sprung rear fender that can deflect out of the way during wheelies to expose a durable nylon rear bumper. It substantially increases the durability of the rear fender

Molded composite skid plates line the front and bottom of the promoto-mx chassis. They offer protection during crashes and keep roost out of the chassis, helping to protect the electronics mounted inside. The air vents on each side of the bike come closed in the box, but can be opened to provide cooling airflow when ambient temperatures are high

Twin aluminum chassis plates house and protect all of the bike's electronics and help to give the promoto-mx its realistically narrow appearance. They also give the frame the rigidity and durability required for harsh impacts

Just like a real dirt bike, the promoto-mx has a rising rate rear suspension. The suspension starts soft around ride height, for smooth handling and a superior grip. It becomes firmer as it gets deeper into up travel, to provide proper preload on jumps and prevent bottoming out in landings. Dialed in with a full oil-filled coil-over shock, the promoto-mx is ready to rip on any surface

The front fork of the promoto-mx is a completely new and modern design with an internal spring and dampener. Designed to work similar to normal rc shocks, the front fork tubes can be rebuilt and tuned by changing the silicone dampening fluid. Using counter-wound upper and lower springs, spacers can be used to adjust the ride height of the promoto-mx as well. And maybe most importantly, they look awesome â just like the real deal

After months of testing different trail settings, head angle, and steering ratios, the promoto-mx product development team found the sweet spot. A head tube angle of 62. 4 degrees gives it the best balance of bump handling, landing jumps, steering input, and "head shake" control on all surfaces

The promoto-mx comes out of the gates hot with a powerful spektrum smart brushless power system. Its 4-pole 3652 3800kv motor puts down the power while the 85a brushless esc adds all the control you need. With enough torque to clear large triples â and massive 40+ mph top speeds on a 2s lipo battery â the promoto-mx power system rips!

Hauling on your bike is a lot more fun when you've got good brakes. The motor can handle rear braking through the drivetrain, but like 1:1 motorcycles, most of the braking happens with the front tire. To slow the promoto-mx down from the front, the front brake uses a steel rotor, caliper-actuated brake pads, and servo-driven cable. It cuts your stopping distance in half â just what you need to catch the next berm

As its 3800kv firma brushless motor puts out abundant power, the promoto-mx's race inspired dual disc slipper clutch helps the dunlop geomax mx35 rear tire keep traction on loose surfaces. The dual pad, spring pressurized slipper clutch takes inspiration from those that the tlr team uses to win races across the globe. It increases traction and protects the drivetrain without sacrificing explosive drive

We could not call the promoto-mx a dirt bike if wasn't chain driven. Steel links and 70 roller pins wrap around a 10-tooth steel drive sprocket and a 36-tooth aluminum hub sprocket. Regardless of conditions, the chain drive will drive the rear tire efficiently and reliably

The losi promoto-mx comes fully assembled, with a high-quality spektrum smart radio system included and on-board electronics already installed. Even aa transmitter batteries are supplied! just add a 2s lipo battery with ic5 plug and a compatible charger and you're ready to ride. please note: ic3 to ic5 adapters will not fit inside of the promoto-mx. A lipo battery with ic5 or ec5 connector is required.

To capture the proper scale looks, the bike's electronics and battery all had to fit within a compact, narrow chassis. Requiring a special "shorty" battery would have made the design task simple, but the promoto-mx product development team wanted to use a more convenient, standard size battery. Mission accomplished! a full-size 2s hardcase lipo fits within the rider's seat, easy to access for quick battery changes. Pop in a charged pack and you're back to roosting your competition in seconds

Complete with boots, brain bucket, and riding gear, the rider figure is ready for all of the same dirt bike-style action as you â to jump, wheelie, carve berms, and throw roost. The rider figures of other rc motorcycles are made entirely of foam, which quickly fails. The promoto-mx rider has a rubberized plastic exterior that can give and flex under impacts and flips. To keep the rider from bobbling around on the bike, the torso has a foam insert. It keeps the body firm during normal operation but still able to give under impact

Just as any real dirt bike rider would want, the promoto-mx comes equipped with the most popular dunlop dirt bike tire tread, the geomax mx53. It's officially licensed by dunlop for scale accuracy and performance. The mx53 delivers on full-scale moto tracks around the world, and it provides high grip and long tire life for the promoto-mx

Its realistic, true-spoke wheels are another first for the promoto-mx. No other rc manufacturers have been able to create proper-looking spoked wheels with the durability needed for a dirt bike. It took the determination and expertise of the losi product development team to make it happen

Losi partnered with fxr racing â a leading manufacturer of helmets, jerseys, pants, and other accessories for full-scale dirt bike enthusiasts â to create the officially licensed graphics for the promoto-mx. The promoto-mx looks perfect. It's ready and waiting for the gate to drop

Working on a real dirt bike is easier with a proper bike stand. So the promoto-mx had to have one, too! the included stand for maintenance and display is modeled after a real bike stand, complete with graphics. To keep the bike balanced on the stand, the promoto-mx keys into the bike stand. Taking it a step further, a hands-free starting stand is also included. This starting stand cradles the rear tire and holds the bike upright and ready for a gate-style start
