OBERON OCEAN, A CONTINUOUS DEVELOPMENT

The Oberon Ocean, the 2017 version of which has already been analysed by TKART, is characterised by tubes with a diameter of 30 and 32 mm. The frame, featuring a traditional design, confirms their collaboration with Parolin Racing Kart, a company at the forefront of automated frame welding, a crucial phase that influences the performance of chassis out on the track.
The first, important new feature of the Oberon Ocean 2018 is the option of choosing from three types of tubes with different thickness ranging from 1.6 mm to 2 mm. This range allows you to completely alter the frames behaviour out on the track, making it more or less flexible, depending on the thickness. In practical terms, the customer can opt for the solution that best suits the type of tyre used and, no less important, the different quantity of rubber deposited on the tarmac of the track, thereby increasing performance.
The option of mounting two bars (front and rear) to increase the rigidity has been confirmed. The introduction of an aluminium bar with holes drilled in several areas, depending on the point at which it is attached, is of great interest since it allows the variation of the amount of chassis flex.
Confermata la possibilità di montare due barre (all’anteriore e al posteriore) per aumentare la rigidità. Interessante l’introduzione della barra in alluminio forata in più zone che, a seconda del punto in cui viene fissata, consente di variare la flessione del telaio.
