About this deal

You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. My cars are 7wide, the solution using technic bricks requires covering the wheels, but this will exceed 7wide. The 103 third parties who use cookies on this service do so for their purposes of displaying and measuring personalized ads, generating audience insights, and developing and improving products. They'll never run out of pieces thanks to products like the LEGO Train Base 6 x 24 Black, or the LEGO Train Coupling Buffer Beam With Sealed Magnets. The only reason I wrote "eternity" is that I had many trams and passanger cars (each of them has at least 200g load for each axle) running on a permanent display between 2017 and 2021 (with some lockdown months).

In your experiment, you used straight track and gravity to accelarate - since metal axles have less friction and mechanic resistance at all and there is no curve resistance, they will perform better. I compared my ball bearing train axles with the original LEGO train axles using cars that weight 685g.The interesting bit is that the plastic axles on R40 reduce the time by almost half compared to metal (and that is with much about 1/3 of the track being straight) whereas the metal only save maybe 10% on straight compared to plastic. While introducing the grey 12V train system in 1980 the colour of the wheels changed to black and the wheels now were fixed to the modified 2x4 brick. Our wheels are designed to fit seamlessly within the LEGO system to cater for train MOCs that require larger (or smaller) driving wheels. What I like about your solution is that the ball bearings are further out than the solution from Legopold. Once the sun comes up and I have enough light to make the camera happy I'll shoot some more video and collect more results.

These wheels are attached to a wheel holder 2x4 brick ( Brick, Modified 2 x 4 with Wheels Holder Old at Bricklink). These wheels were connected to a modified 2x4 brick and their running characteristics are much worse then the 9V train wheels. I'm more a Technic fan but long covid means I have too much Lego time and not enough enthusiasm for yet another Technic car. Injection moulding really does give a better finish than even the decent 3D printers that TrixBrix use. November 2019 Now Bigger then ever: XXL wheels now available in red, black, dark gray, light gray and dark red.Your children will no longer be limited only to the pieces that have come in a pre designed LEGO play set.

I assume from this point on the used grease / oil is more important for ball bearings in LEGO train wheel sets.

At that time I found only the solution using modified train wheel holders from Legopold https://www.For the metal axles I tried to get some into the axle hole on the wheel as well as on the axle where it goes through the holder. The photos of the scales have had the display area curves blown out so you can actually read the display in the video. A speciality is the large train wheel from this era with 29 mm diameter (today this equals the "medium" size of BBB wheels). britbricks, the britbricks logo, britbricks custom designs and all content not covered by The LEGO Group's copyright is, unless otherwise stated, ©2024 britbricks.
