HandlevsTrak Racer M8 x 25mm Hardened Flat Hex Screws – Pack of 10

The Bottom Line

While one helps you physically climb into your cockpit without breaking your wheel, the other keeps your accessories locked down tight. We are comparing a heavy-duty aluminum Handle against a 10-pack of Trak Racer M8 x 25mm Hardened Flat Hex Screws to see how these small additions impact your rig.

Watch out

Trak Racer hardware occasionally suffers from rough threads that are prone to cross-threading if you are not careful during alignment. Some buyers also report missing pieces in their shipments, forcing them to source replacements locally.
