B-MOW71

Stopped by my LHS today and picked up the new Element Enduro Sendero RTR.

I was lucky enough to see these in person at the Team KNK TTC6 last month. These trucks performed very well. Most of the trucks were out-of-the-box stock with the exception of a couple that had swapped out wheels and tires. After seeing these I knew that I had to have one.

I was torn between buying the RTR or the Kit. I myself prefer the kit versions as I like to build them and get familiar with how they go together. I decided on the RTR because I really liked the idea of the box that turns into a scale garage. Great idea Element! I have been thinking about making a scale garage for awhile now, but never had the time to sit down and make one. The other reason I decided on the RTR was the stock tires. After seeing them perform at KNK and watching numerous videos of them I knew that I had to try them out.

My plans are to run this stock for a few months and see how well it does. (running a rig stock has never lasted more than a day, so we'll see how it goes!) I will probably throw a quick paint job on it just so it doesn't look like the other countless Enduro's out on the trail.

Here is quick shot of the box. Don't pay any attention to my disaster of a workbench. I've got too many projects going on at the same time that I need to finish.



More to come later...
