JConcepts presents the Megalithic. Built to the popular class 1, 4.19" outside diameter competition dimension, the Megalithic is the most detailed JConcepts tire ever produced. When JConcepts R & D sat down to conceptualize ideas and celebratory projects for its 20th anniversary, the team decided to produce an intricate crawling tire.
The Megalithic details a layout of lug arrangement, terracing, and recessing to provide a footing capable of distorting to just about any terrain. The large "bat lug" center section can pull in either direction and can be tested in vertical lug direction forward, or with the stepping forward. Next to the center, the "club lugs" with recessed areas define the outside of the tread. The "sharks' mouth" ties an arrangement of the center structure together and the Megalithic pyramid drops right into the center giving surface area at various angles.
The sidewalls include heavy traction bar placement, removed sections to add pitch and flex grip characteristics. Several "pencil push" plots array the sidewalls with heavy carved and shaved sections in each rotation. A "liquid rope" finalizes the sidewall tread detail to separate where the tread ends, and the tire lettering begins. Recessed JConcepts logo with inner hatching takes position in multiple areas while the 20th Anniversary logo looks strong. The tire naming is shown in prehistoric font with part number 4078 for easy identification.
The Megalithic tire includes firm "open cell" foam inserts to support the ride and packaged and sealed with authentic JConcepts packaging with holographic badge for identification. The JConcepts sticky green compound is a favorite among the RC industry giving just the correct amount of flex and dampen release to support weight and hold traction in difficult situations. The tire is designed for popular 1.9" bead mounting diameter plastic, aluminum, and steel wheels on the market.
