New Karting Products


  15 September 2015

A trio of new karting products that have been developed:

Horizontal Radiator System

It's a wonder it's taken this long for someone to develop a lower-drag and less intrusive cooling system for KZ & KF karts.

Greyhound Racing Seats are working on this radiator and associated fittings in collaboration with New-Line, and posted some photos on Facebook.

In addition to offering less drag, the radiator is better protected from accident damage.

'Chain Monkey' Chain Tensioner

Chain Monkey has been developed by Tru-Tension, a newly formed, UK based kart tool manufacturer.

Instead of setting chain tension in a hit-or-miss manner (too tight on one attempt, too loose on the next, etc), Chain Moneky means the tension can be set exactly the same every time.

When fitted to the chain, a pre-adjusted Chain Monkey takes up a pre-set amount of slack. The engine can then be pushed forward and bolted down tightly with a tight chain. But when Chain Monkey is then released, the chain has the correct amount of slack.

"Chain Monkey removes all form of guesswork – you can set your chain first time to the exact tension you require, every time."

 

Two-Way Adjustable Keys

Also from the UK are these 2-way adjustable keys. The 2-pin key design is suitable for most kart brands and is designed to stop the rear hubs from moving, but still allow for adjustments in rear track by turning the key the other way.

Rear track adjustment is also faster as there is no need to keep measuring - the hub simply stops at whichever hole is being used.
