Speed Reducer Question

Post by shortslvs »

I haven't seen one that looks quite like this. Anyone recognize this and how does it stack up against what I am used to seeing?

Any help is appreciated :)

That is the exact one I was looking at. I asked the guy for a model number and never heard back from him. Said he would take 210 for it, but I hadn't seen one like it before. But I am new so maybe you guys have?...

That should get you up to "speed". BTW $210 sounds high from what I've seen on ebay. I have one so I don't watch that close, but I'd do some looking before that outlay of cash.

I hear ya. I think before I would risk 210 I would spend a sure 290 :-)
