Need to confirm Lazer ZX-5 rear hub carrier spec
Can any Lazer guru tell me how wide the Lazer ZX-5 rear hub/carriers are, where the hinge-pin goes ("A" in the image) and also the depth, "B"?
And lastly, do these Lazer hubs utilize the same size bearings as the Optima does (5mm I.D. x 10mm O.D. x 4mm thick I believe)?
Thanks!

B= 9.5 mm
A= 12 mm
And yes the bearings are the same. -Jeff

Thanks Jeff, this part is gonna give me options! I'm surprised it's actually narrower (at the pins) than the stock Optima hubs. Based on your info, I made a purchase. I appreciate you taking the time to measure.

Mine are blue alloy so needs to search. Mine came from hong kong. Link nelow and this gives better options than the two hole version.

Thanks for the link, I checked those out...beautiful pieces, indeed (they also make front knuckles & C-carriers). But at over $36 a pair, no thanks!Kyosho Fan2 wrote:Mine are blue alloy so needs to search. Mine came from hong kong. Link nelow and this gives better options than the two hole version.

Price difference is a lot, so makes a lot of sense why you bought it.
