Overview
The MIP Bypass1 Hi-Flow Pistons 6-Hole x 1.3mm bring race-winning Bypass1 technology to your 1/8 scale shocks. Engineered with a decreased outer diameter, these Hi-Flow pistons allow more blow-by at slow shaft speeds, letting your vehicle move more freely through bumps and corners while maintaining strong control under power.
Used and proven by top racers like Adam Drake and Ryan Maifield at the IFMAR Worlds and Dirt Nitro Challenge, the 6-hole x 1.3mm Hi-Flow piston is one of the most popular configurations in the lineup—a balanced default that wins on a wide range of surfaces.
