__TOC__

== Attack Ring (AR): Reverse Wolf ==

* '''Weight:''' 5 grams

Reverse Wolf has several projections that are facing counter-clockwise. However, these projections have very little effect. There is almost no use whatsoever for this AR.

== Weight Disk (WD): Eight Balance ==

See [[Balance Weight Disks | Eight Balance]].

== Spin Gear (SG): Right (Bearing Version) ==

* '''Weight:''' 6 grams

This is the only truly useful part of [[Wolborg]]. It is the successor to [[Metal Dragoon Bearing Stinger]] in the sense that it has a [[free-spinning shaft]] supported by [[bearings]]. This system reduces the loss of spin that occurs when it is hit by another Beyblade. Unfortunately, in the trade-off of being able to replace the SG shell with a [[Spin Gear#A to F Series Spin Gears | Left SG]] shell, you can only place one bearing in the shaft casing. Metal Dragoon Bearing Stinger allowed for the placement of two. However, [[Burning Kerberous]] and [[Takara]]'s [[Zeus]] allow for the placement of two bearings.

=== Mold Variations ===

Many players complain that [[Hasbro]]'s tip of the shaft in the SG (Bearing Version) functions significantly differently from [[Takara]]'s. Tests have shown that Hasbro's version is far more aggressive. This has been shown to have a correlation to the condition of the shaft and the fact that [[Takara]]'s mold is considerably more pointed at the tip.

=== Placing Other Shafts in the SG (Bearing Version) ===

You can place the shaft of [[Metal Dragoon Bearing Stinger]]'s Bearing Base and [[Wolborg 2]]'s SG (Bearing Version 2) inside the casing of SG (Bearing Version). However, the casing of SG (Bearing Version) and SG (Bearing Version 2) are identical; only the shaft itself is different.

=== Use in Second Generation [[Zombie|Zombies]] ===

Originally, only [[Metal Dragoon Bearing Stinger]]'s Bearing Base was available for [[Zombie]] use. However, SG (Bearing Version) became a serious choice for many players.

An example combo would be:

* '''AR:''' Tiger Defenser ([[Driger S]])
* '''WD:''' [[Wide Survivor]]
* '''SG:''' [[Spin_Gear#A_to_F_Series_Spin_Gears|Left SG]] (Bearing Version) ([[Wolborg]])
* '''BB:''' Defense Grip Base 2 ([[Wolborg 2]])

=== Use in Third Generation [[Zombie|Zombies]] ===

An example combo would be:

* '''AR:''' Twin Horn ([[Gabriel]] <nowiki>[</nowiki>[[Takara]] Version])
* '''WD:''' [[Wide Survivor]]
* '''SG:''' [[Spin_Gear#A_to_F_Series_Spin_Gears|Left SG]] (Bearing Version) ([[Wolborg]])
* '''SP:''' Defense Ring ([[Voltaic Ape]])
* '''BB:''' Customize Grip Base ([[Dragoon V2]])

=== Use in [[Attack]] + [[Survival]] Customizations ===

Using SG (Bearing Version), you can build an [[Attack]] + [[Survival]] combo that can defeat many pure survival-types.

* '''AR:''' Upper Dragoon ([[Master Dragoon]], [[Kids Dragoon]])
* '''WD:''' [[Wide Defense]]
* '''SG:''' [[Spin_Gear#A_to_F_Series_Spin_Gears|Right SG]] (Bearing Version) ([[Wolborg]])
* '''SP:''' Defense Ring ([[Voltaic Ape]])
* '''BB:''' Customize Grip Base ([[Dragoon V2]])

== Blade Base (BB): SG Bearing Base ==

* '''Weight:''' 10 grams

Because the SG is separate from the BB, there is very little that makes this BB noteworthy. For [[5-Layer]] customization, [[Wolborg 2]]'s Defense Grip Base 2 is generally a better choice to accompany SG (Bearing Version). For [[6-Layer]], [[Dragoon V2]]'s Customize Grip Base will be the only choice.

== Other Versions ==

* [[Wolborg]] - [[CoroCoro]] Limited Version (Metallic Blue)
* [[Wolborg]] - [[Phantom Force]] Version (Translucent Yellow)

== Overall ==

[[Wolborg]] is an indispensable Beyblade only because of its [[Spin Gear | SG]] (Bearing Version) part. Every player needs to own this part to compete seriously. '''Every player should own multiples of this Beyblade.'''
