__TOC__

'''Note: Samurai Ifraid''' (pronounced 'ee-fraid') was the first release of the Metal Fight Beyblade Zero-G series.

==Stone Face: Ifraid==
*'''Weight:''' 1.2 grams
This diamond-shaped Face illustrates Ifrit, a mythical creature of fire. The mark represents a simplistic demon head with small horns and some flames.

==Chrome Wheel: Ifraid==
*'''Weight:''' 30.4 grams

Like most Zero-G Beyblades, Ifraid's design is interrupted by a hole at one of its extremities to allow the Crystal Wheel's crystal to protrude through it. The rest of its design shows an engraved Ifrit face one one side, with two long horns reaching all the way to the other side, where a few flames are drawn into the metal, close to the hole. Testing has shown that Ifraid provides smash attack, but can be even more useful as the bottom wheel in Synchrom with Gryph in the combo ''MSF-H Ifraid Gryph W145R2F'', as it has its main contact points exposed by Gryph.
A good Synchrom with Ifraid is MSF-H Bahamdia Ifraid SA165R2F which is one of, or the best Synchrom with Ifraid since it has good synergy with Bahamdia, also revealing some more contact spots, giving more attack power.

==Crystal Wheel: Samurai==
{| class="wikitable"
|Weight:
|5.4 grams
|Full Width:
|46.14 mm
|Height:
|6.58 mm
|}

This Crystal Wheel has a general shape that tries to embrace Ifraid's own relief curves. On one side, it has a big orb known as a crystal, and it is the part that truly combines Samurai with its Chrome Wheel. To compensate with this big orb, the other side is generally bigger so an overall balance can be gained.

However, Samurai can also be placed right on top of Ifraid. In its Chrome Up Mode, Samurai barely protrudes on the sides of the Ifraid Chrome Wheel, but, following this mode change, in Crystal Up Mode, it logically absorbs most if not all of the impacts and offers a completely different performance.

==Track: Wing 145==
*'''Weight:''' 2.2 grams

W145 is a normal 145 Track with six sharp wings that are slightly angled. The pointy ends are however cut off to form, overall, more of a dodecagon. It is based off of W105, T125, and DF145, but the downforce it creates is actually extremely effective compared to those three Tracks, and W145 succeeds in being a top-tier Stamina Track consequently.

==Bottom: Circle Flat==
{| class="wikitable"
|Weight:
|2.5 gram
|Full Width:
|33.80 mm
|Tip Width:
| mm
|Full Height:
|8.86 mm
|Angle to real flat tip:
|50°
|}

This is a Flat Bottom with a large circle around it, fixed at its base, similar to D125's own ring. The circle helps embrace the acute slope of the stadium, which is useful in such an swaying environment as the Zero-G Stadium Attack Type. As with any other Flat Bottom, CF has a tendency to self K.O. when launched at high speeds. However, this can be avoided by launching slightly slower than normal, as the circle on CF can prevent the bey to self K.O. by gripping the slope of the Zero-G stadium when it has more control of its speed. CF's main purpose, however, is to use its circle to cause the Zero-G stadium to sway, thus throwing the opposing bey out of the stadium, which it does quite effectively according to many Youtube battle videos. It's main downfall is that it, like other Flat Bottoms, has little stamina. W145 can boost its stamina, though. CF is also not very effective against beys such as Thief Phoenic E230GCF, which can easily avoid being thrown out of the Zero-G stadium by such means due to E230 and GCF.

Infinity Libra GB145S

__TOC__

[[Infinity Libra GB145S]] used to be obtained in Japan in exchange for 30,000 Beypoints on the Beypoint Card. Since early 2011, it is now unavailable.

==Face: Libra==
The Face on this Beyblade depicts Libra, the seventh astrological sign in the Zodiac. Libra’s symbol is The Scales, and this motif is featured on the Beyblade’s Face and Clear Wheel. The Face included with the original release of Infinity Libra GB145S is clear.

==Clear Wheel: Libra==
*'''Weight:''' 2.8g
The regular release of Libra is a translucent green, featuring scales on opposite sides. It’s a rounded Clear Wheel without any particular use due to its average weight. As a matter of fact, the two raised platforms of the scales are hollow underneath, creating no excess weight on both sides that would provide good Flywheel Effect.

===Mold Variations===
The original mold of Libra does not fit Metal Wheels correctly, resulting in a loose fit and rattling. This was later rectified in the [[Bey Reshuffle Set Stamina & Defense Type]] release.

==Metal Wheel: Infinity==
*'''Weight:''' 29.7 grams
Infinity is meant to be a rendition to the original Metal System [[Libra DF145BS#Wheel: Libra | Libra]] as it shares the same aesthetics with it being round and interrupted with small indents from the shapes of several balancing scales. However, it has been proven that Infinity's performance as a defensive Metal Wheel is not as great as many other Metal Wheels such as [[Basalt Horogium 145WD#Metal Wheel: Basalt | Basalt]]. One major problem is that Infinity is slightly thinner, which reduces the "barrier" that a defensive Bey is suppose to have, and the indents in its design cause slight [[Recoil]]. Another significant difference is the difference in weight; Infinity weighs less than most good Metal Wheels in general, which thus allows it to be knocked around with ease. In other words, although it may resemble the [[Libra DF145BS#Wheel: Libra | Libra]] Wheel, it only holds a portion of the potential that Metal System Wheel possessed, and therefore did not live anywhere near the expectations held for it.

Having no [[Attack]] potential with its circular shape, Infinity is an outclassed Metal Wheel, and should only be used as a replacement for [[Earth Aquila 145WD#Metal Wheel: Earth | Earth]], [[Basalt Horogium 145WD#Metal Wheel: Basalt | Basalt]], [[Libra DF145BS#Wheel: Libra | Libra]], [[Death Quetzalcoatl 125RDF#4D Metal Wheel: Death | Death]], [[Duo Uranus 230WD#4D Metal Wheel: Duo | Duo]] or [[Diablo Nemesis X:D#4D Metal Wheel: Diablo | Diablo]] when all the aforementioned are not available.

==Track: Gravity Ball 145==
{| class="wikitable"
|Weight:
|4.5 grams
|Maximum Width:
|36.0 mm
|Minimum Width:
|28.5.0 mm
|Full Height:
|14.50 mm
|Metal Balls Diameter:
|5.0 mm
|}

GB145 is a wide, round track featuring two free moving metal balls. These balls move toward the outside of the Track while spinning, causing additional spin retaining force, similar to [[Draciel Metal Ball Defenser]]'s Metal Ball Base from the [[Plastic Beyblade | plastic generation]]. Weighing in at 4.5 grams, GB145 is currently one of the heaviest Tracks available, and as such is useful in [[Defense]] customizations. At release, it was seen by some as inferior to [[Metal Fight Beyblade - Track List#C145: Claw 145 | C145]] due to the lack of energy-absorbing free spinning wings, making it not as effective as against low attackers such as [[Quetzalcoatl 90WF#Wheel: Quetzalcoatl | Quetzalcoatl]] 90RF, which were popular at the time.

Where GB145 does shine is when it is utilized in Defense customizations against high CH120-based Attackers, such as MF [[Lightning L Drago 100HF | Lightning L Drago]] CH120RF. These types of Attackers do not aim to hit the Track, and thus the free spinning wings of C145 are not necessary, and you instead get a significant increase in the overall weight of the customization. However, it has been outclassed for Defense customizations by [[Metal Fight Beyblade - Track List#BD145: Boost Disk 145|BD145]] and [[Metal Fight Beyblade - Track List#TH170: Triple Height 170|TH170]].

===Use in Defense Customization===
GB145 can be utilized in the [[Defense]] customization ''MF-H Basalt/Earth Aquario GB145RS''. The Bull Clear Wheel may also be used as a substitute if Aquario is unavaliable.

==Bottom: Sharp==
{| class="wikitable"
|Weight:
|0.6 gram
|Full Width:
|15.91 mm
|Tip Width:
|4.14 mm
|Full Height:
|8.83 mm
|Tip Height:
|6.82 mm
|Tip Angle:
|35°
|}

Sharp was released as Spike in the Hasbro release.The Sharp Bottom offers very little movement and as such provides no attack potential. The pointed tip allows for very little friction between the Bottom and the stadium surface, which helps prevent the loss of [[spin velocity]]. However, due to the fine nature of the tip, the Bottom is easily knocked off balance, and hence is outclassed by superior alternatives such as D or SD.

==Overall==
'''Infinity Libra GB145S''' contains multiple parts that serve no use in competitive play. Its only useful part, GB145, can be purchased through [[Earth Virgo GB145BS]], which is a better and more accessible buy. '''This Beyblade should only be bought for collective purposes.'''
