Roll design have the best a-arms.period. They are the reference in the industry. If you have the $$$ then go with none other than Roll.

i would have to say walsh is the best, followd by the new houser sli-cast.

Epics are the best you can buy

I wouldn't go as far as to say epic are the best you can buy. I think they are an o.k. product with no customer service. Also, I cant see how you can be comparing to go with either a roll or epic front end. I dont think the epic is as good of a product as Roll design. What are these arms for?

[raptorrider314]

they are for a yfz 450. I was really lookin for the +3. I knew epic and roll made them, do you guys know of any other manufactors that make teh +3 arms?

[rob-u/21]

Rated X motorsports make an awsome YFZ front end and are very well priced. Give Eric a call at Rated X he is a real nice guy. Someone in this forum has a YFZ with one of their front ends, lets see if she could post a pic.

Here is their link.

Yes you. Your'e quad looks really good with those arms.


Rated-X makes their arms so that your quad will be 50" wide with stock wheel offset. They are not necesarly going to be +2 or +3. I know 450r's are +2.3.

[TBD]

The YFZ arms are also +2.2" over. They were designed to use the stock or stock offset aftermarket wheel. The YFZ arms are also available 1" forward ( I would only recomend this for desert but some use it for MX).

I've always liked the RatedX style opposed to the gull wing style of the Roll for ground clearance.

That being said, I really have no say since I run stock arms.. lol.

[400grl]

I need to look into that stock wheel offset thing........!! :)

It will all matter on what type of riding you chose to do. I have Epic and those that have posted above know this.

I think that when it comes to most top of the line suspension products that it really comes down to useage and matter of taste.

Roll is probably considered somthing of an industry standard along with say Laeger.

You could go with Epic (By the way, you can get them at Alba Action Sports or Golden West Cycle) or JD, Walsh, Hermann, ARS FX, Lone Star, HD USA, Rated-X, Gibson or whomever, and probably not know a real difference, though most builders would like to say that they have some unique intangible that makes theirs special. In reality most of these companies have the ability to make a product that performs as well as most riders would need.

As to a service issue and being able to reach the manufacturer, some you can, that's the way they operate, Epic develops and produces products that are sold through dealers that can answer most questions and deal with service issues. If they can't then they put you in contact with the manufacturer. Because after all, if you have an issue with your Yamaha, you take it to the dealer. You don't call Yamaha direct as the dealers are authorized to take care of your needs. If a builder has to constantly field every question big or small, that cuts into the time spent designing, building, testing and racing to provide products that continue to evolve and improve.
