Seaborg 2 is a Balance-type Beyblade and is one of Spencer's Beyblades. He used it in place of the original Seaborg in the first anime series. It is the evolution of the original Seaborg.
Bit Chip (BC): Seaborg[]
The chip depicts Seaborg.
Attack Ring (AR): Whale Crusher[]
- Main article: Attack Ring - Whale Crusher
- Weight: 8 Grams
Whale Crusher is useful for Smash Attack as it has a very wide attack range. In left spin, Whale Crusher has the ability to perform Smash Attack. Eight Spiker is generally a better choice, but Whale Crusher's weight and size may prove more suitable to your strategy, as its larger diameter gives it a higher chance of making contact. Whale Crusher in right spin can be used in Defense type customizations and has a slight amount of Upper Attack. The Survival of this AR is generally considered to be too low to be used properly in a Defensive customization and Smash Turtle is usually preferred.
Use in OHKO Customisation[]
- AR: Whale Crusher (Seaborg 2)
- WD: Ten Heavy
- SG: Neo Left SG Heavy Metal Core (Metal Driger)
- BB: SG Metal Flat Base (Gaia Dragoon V)
This style of attack is very risky as it generally has to win very quickly or it will just spin out, however the Metal Flat Tip allows it to spin a little longer than if Storm Grip Base were used.
Weight Disk (WD): Eight Wide[]
- Main article: Weight Disk - Eight Wide
As the name implies, the Wide series of WDs are some of the widest Weight Disks available. Along with having a large diameter, the bulk of the mass on a Wide WD is visibly focused around the perimeter. They are also noticeably lighter than Heavy and even Balance Weight Disks.
Spin Gear (SG): Right SG[]
- Main article: Spin Gear - Right SG
Right Spin Gears allow for right spin when used in tandem with Right-Spin Shooters. In a Right-Spin Spin Gear, two tabs (situated close to the right sides of the Spin Gear) would attach to the Right-Spin Shooter, allowing a Beyblade to be spun clockwise.
They have plastic casing surrounding a metal ring and gear which is placed into the Blade Base and held in place by base clips. The core (centre pieces) is not interchangeable in Standard Spin Gears. Different variations have now been released that feature weights, bearings and even an engine inside the Spin Gear.
Blade Base (BB): SG Flat[]
- Main article: Blade Base - SG Flat
- Weight: 5 grams
SG Flat can be considered the successor of the Flat Blade Base. The flat tip allows for high movement speed, while the low height allows for effective Upper Attack.

Overall[]
While Whale Crusher's solid Upper Attack ability is a nice touch, the fact is that it is too aggressive to be used for Spin Stealing Upper Attack (the only competitive Upper Attack-based type aside from Driger V2 combinations, which inherently only use Upper Claw as their Attack Ring) yet not powerful enough to be an effective choice for Smash Attack in either spin direction leaves Seaborg 2 without any truly competitive parts. Unless one is desperate, this Beyblade is only worth buying for collection purposes.
