I ordered a 2+2 axle today for my 03 speed. They only had listings for 02 cannibals. Are they the same axle. If anyone has changed axles is there anything I need to look out for or is it like any other bike. I was also thinking about gearing up higher, do you think the speed can pull it ok?

I dont know if Dura-break have improved but they are the only aftermarket axel that we have ever seen break. Two this year, 3 last and 2 or 3 the year before. Not in ours but at the track.

We had no problem installing a RPM in the Cannibal. We are running 15 X 36 gearing at our MX tracks

We also put a Lonestar in our EX. No problems.

Durabreak does not have a true lifetime warranty either, even though they claim they do. Only Lonestar and RPM have lifetime warranties.
Durabreak will charge you I believe $170 after your first claim with them.

thats what we are running ! Have to start in first, but with neutral being a pain to find we (my son the racer) only missed 2nd once. We only use 5th in one spot on three of our tracks and never on the other two. We are running 18" tires and are set at 49" wide. We are running big gun exhust and moto 440 mapping.
