I decided to order it from ebay for 330 and a total with shipping 345. Hopefully this axle wont bend or break anytime soon.

why LSR???......RPM is better in my opinnion..and the sprocket hubs on LSR's ive been told have been known to break.....if your an aggressive rider.

LSR are the best axles out. They are most deffinently the strongest ones out right now.

Wrong... RPM is the strongest

rpm would take the best durability award. however, they aren't light either.

I will sell you an LSR extended axle for 250. It is straight and very durable. I am doing harescrambles and dont need it. Send me a message if interested!

yeah i would like to see the team firestick too. i hear they are good. the price isn't all that bad and i hear they only weigh around 14 lbs with hubs if i remember correctly.

Is +3 really enough with the lonestar? I guess I am used to a +5 durablue on my ex.

the LSR axles are a tad on the Narrow side.

I have put mine though living Hell, and it has held up very well.

I wouldnt quite put them up with RPM, but they are definetly lighter.

I have seen both break and bend.

IMO the LSR is the best bang for your buck.

Ohh btw the finish on the LSRs are junk. I have to brillo pad mine, and spray it down with WD every wash or it gets rustier than a mofo.

Team is sweet. Comes with tappered hubs. You will not have to keep tigfhtening the hubs like my RPM.. All are great except dura bend

Try here

Axle (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&category=43972&item=4562873113&sspagename=WDVW)

Use the best offer and offer three, I can't remember what I paid but it's free shipping, see if he bites.

Why does Durablue get a bad wrap? I've bought three and never had problems. They have to be atleast better than those cheap G-Force axles.

i've put my LSR through hell also. i cased about 5 jumps really hard, landed crooked, landed on one wheel, sideways, it is only bent a little. i'm either going to send it back for Pro Rotation or wait till it breaks and get a new one.

The 1st batch of LSR axles are bad, and I broke one of those by overshooting an 85 footer. Since then no troubles.

And for the person who said "is +3 enough?" Thats as wide as you can go on a 450R to be at the 50" limit to race nationals. LSR wont do much out of national specs.
