In most forms of motorsport every last gram makes a difference and Mini Spares has just released an ultra-light, forged EN24T, steel race flywheel that weighs just 2.4kg.

This flywheel is for use with a non-Verto clutch and a pre-engaged starter and has a built-in machined, non-replaceable ring-ear, which should never wear if the pre-engaged starter is functioning correctly.

The component is made symmetrically to reduce harmonics vibrations, which were evident on earlier versions and is considerably lighter than others available on the market and Mini Spares say that it’s intended for competent race engine builders use only and not recommend for road use.

Order as part number C-AEG618EVO at £198 inc VAT with more details from 01707 607 700 or via www.minispares.com ENDS.
