Yup bought two sets, seem very good to me, replaces the nasty screws the cars come with... I've found the standard screws on the bottom start to rust, so best to replace them if you can.

Well I'd love to name a UK based shop, but they don't seem to be selling the screw sets (or the graphite front/rear arms)... I used a place called ChampRC (Champ International), you have to email them I think, they seem to like me, this could have something to do with all the orders I've placed with them.

Other than this you can build a set by using people like MicroTech Racing, they sell nice screws (ULTRA TITANIUM) but not in 'sets' so just order the ones you need.

Super stuff, ta da

I`ve sent RC Champ an e-mail.

Yeah its a shame, it seems to be quite hard to source the complete set of spares for the bx over here.
The shops I have found stock some items, do not stock much of a qty, so run out quite quick.

I must admit i`ve only just starting racing this class, so this might be the norm.

I`ve used Microtech quite a few times and they are extremly good with their mail order.

Just trying to be lazy and ordering complete BX screw sets.
