Product summary for the JR Bergkaiser Premium

The Tamiya 19437 - JR Bergkaiser Premium is a Mini 4WD kit that blends a recognisable race silhouette with the adaptable Super-II chassis. Known from Let's & Go!!, the Bergkaiser gives hobbyists a platform that suits both display and track tuning.

Aerodynamic, Durable Body

Constructed from ABS plastic, the body keeps weight low while providing impact resistance. The metallic silver finish and sticker accents deliver a period-authentic look that performs well in sprint and endurance track formats.

Super-II Chassis Overview

The Super-II chassis is valued for its balance of strength and upgrade potential. It includes side stays and a gold-tone stabiliser head in ABS, enabling a range of common modifications without compromising structural integrity.

Upgrade and Tuning Notes

  • Motors: Compatible with standard 130 single-shaft motors to suit common upgrade paths.
  • Tires: Fitted with 26mm low-profile black tyres on yellow 5-spoke wheels, aimed at maintaining directional stability.
  • Gears: Uses a 3.5:1 gear ratio to offer a compromise between acceleration and maximum velocity.
  • Additional Upgrades: Options for adjusting weight and installing dampers help refine handling for different track styles.

Assembly and Running

The kit assembles via snap-fit parts and is accessible to newcomers while still giving scope for experienced tuners to refine setup. Two AA batteries and a small Phillips screwdriver are required to run and complete the build.
