Manufactured from carbon fibre to the EVO6 standard, the SICH119c1 is the Anglewinder motor mount from Slot.it with a 1.0 mm offset and integrated ball bearings. It minimises friction, lowers the centre of gravity, and ensures perfect crown alignment for high-level competition.
The Anglewinder motor mount that makes a difference on track: SICH119c1 from Slot.it
Within the Anglewinder spare parts catalogue from Slot.it, the SICH119c1 represents the highest performance version of the EVO6 mount family. Combining carbon fibre, a precise 1.0 mm offset, and high-precision ball bearings, this part is designed for those looking to extract the maximum potential from their chassis in competition.
Function and performance
The motor mount —also known as the bracket— is the piece that connects the motor to the chassis and determines the transmission geometry. In an Anglewinder configuration, the motor is positioned at an angle relative to the rear axle, allowing for optimised mass distribution and the centre of gravity of the assembly.
The 1.0 mm offset shifts the position of the rear axle relative to the motor pinion shaft, directly affecting the chassis height and cornering performance. A correct choice of offset is key to fine-tuning the dynamic behaviour of the car: a larger offset lowers the centre of gravity more, while a smaller one offers greater clearance in certain body configurations.
The incorporation of ball bearings integrated in this version —as opposed to the simple bronze bushings of the standard versions— substantially reduces mechanical friction. The result is a smoother transmission, better top speed, and less degradation of the part during long sessions or endurance competitions.
Carbon fibre construction
The chosen material is not incidental. Carbon fibre offers significantly superior structural rigidity compared to nylon or Delrin while maintaining minimal weight. This prevents micro-flexing under the torque of more powerful motors, ensuring that the alignment between pinion and crown gear remains constant throughout the race. It is the preferred material in high-level setups where every tenth of a second counts.
Compatibility and assembly
This mount follows the EVO6 standard from Slot.it, making it compatible with chassis from the range that accept this type of independent mount. Before assembly, it is advisable to verify that the 1.0 mm offset is suitable for the gear ratio and the specific model body; Slot.it offers different offset values within its range to adjust the geometry to each configuration.

Who is this spare part for?
The SICH119c1 is aimed at drivers competing in categories with Slot.it chassis who seek to minimise mechanical variables. It is also the usual choice in club setups where durability is ensured without sacrificing performance. If your EVO6 chassis already has a nylon mount or standard bushings, upgrading to this carbon fibre version with bearings is one of the most cost-effective changes you can make.
Common mistakes when choosing the offset
A common mistake is choosing the offset based solely on what another driver uses on track, without considering their own body or the installed pinion-crown gear ratio. The correct offset depends on the combination of motor, chassis, and specific body. Consult the recommended configuration from Slot.it for your specific model before deciding.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the SICH119c1 and the version without bearings?
The version with bearings incorporates ball bearings instead of bronze or nylon bushings. This reduces mechanical friction, improves transmission speed, and increases the lifespan of the part, especially in intensive use or endurance competition.
What is the offset in an Anglewinder motor mount?
The offset indicates the vertical displacement between the motor pinion shaft and the rear axle. A 1.0 mm offset modifies the chassis height and, therefore, the centre of gravity of the assembly, directly influencing the car's behaviour in corners.
Is it compatible with all Slot.it chassis?
It is compatible with Slot.it chassis that use the EVO6 mount standard. It is not interchangeable with earlier versions (EVO5 or earlier) or with chassis from other brands without the corresponding adaptations. Verify your chassis standard before purchasing.
Can I use this mount on a track with Sport rail?
Compatibility with the type of rail does not depend on the motor mount but on the chassis, guide, and braids of the car. The SICH119c1 is an internal part of the transmission system and has no direct relation to the rail system used.
How much does the change to bearings really affect performance?
In competitive conditions, the reduction of friction provided by the ball bearings translates into a noticeable improvement in top speed and less heat generation in the transmission. In casual recreational use, the difference is smaller, but the durability of the part remains superior.
Is any special tooling required for installation?
The assembly follows the standard process for Slot.it EVO6 mounts. It is recommended to use the brand's alignment tools to ensure that the pinion and crown gear are perfectly parallel and have the correct clearance.
