iglidur® is at the forefront of model racing

European model racing champion Clark Wohlert visited igus® and presented his RC bike, the jabber from Lightscale. Thomas Preissner was delighted because the jabber features two iglidur® products: an iglidur® G bushing is installed in the hard anodised sliding surface of the suspension fork. The rear wheel swing arm is equipped with an iglidur® J collar bushing. According to Clark Wohlert, the iglidur® bushings guarantee clearance-free and low-friction movements. These are particularly important specifications for model racing as the jabber can reach speeds of up to 110km/h. This makes it the fastest bike in model racing at present.
