Keep Your XV-02 Safer with the Tamiya 51701 Bumper

The Tamiya 51701 urethane bumper is a solid spare for XV-02 owners who want reliable front-end protection. The urethane material flexes to absorb hits, helping to limit damage to the chassis and nearby parts when you take a tumble.

Compatibility and When to Use It

As a designed replacement for the XV-02, this bumper mounts in the original location without workaround. Its shock-absorbing properties make it suitable for track days, rough garden runs, and club bashing. If you are checking fit for other Tamiya kits, consult the Tamiya R/C Parts Matching List for confirmation.

How long will a urethane bumper last under heavy use?

Longevity depends on impact frequency and severity. Urethane resists cracking better than rigid plastics, but replace it when cuts or deformation compromise mounting integrity.

Will this affect my repair routine?

Using a urethane bumper may reduce the number of chassis repairs after minor crashes. Inspect mounting points regularly and replace screws if they show wear.

Are there upgrade options beyond this bumper?

Some users pair urethane bumpers with reinforced mounts or skid plates for added protection. Always verify compatibility with the XV-02 layout before fitting additional parts.

Any tips for storing the bumper when not in use?

Keep the bumper out of direct sunlight and away from solvent fumes to avoid material degradation. Store in a cool, dry place to retain flexibility.
