What are the best a-arms out there for XC racing looking at long travel setup. Ohh for a 06-07 model.

Thanks
Clayton

I tried search and didn't really see a good comparision, thinking walsh but must look mx style, houser has them i see, and ars-fx?

I have had nothing but awesome experiences with Houser products, even buying their used stuff! Their max clearance XC arms are pretty sweet. ARS-FX is a highly recommended company, though I've never used their products I would love to!

I love my Houser's! They have held up great too. Houser and ArsFX are your best two options.

for xc id recomend an arm with rubber boots on reg ball joints,the sperical bearing type with king pins mud will wear out quicker,most peple like +1 for woods,im running +2 laegers and fit ok in most trails am 48 wide with 4+1 rims and with a tire change can use same setup for mx track

i have run houser arms for three years and also have raced a ars-fx setup, this year i switched to rated x arms and along with ohlins shock's. our bikes this year work better then any other year so i would highly recommend the rated x over the houser. i wasn't a huge fan of the max clearance arms and liked the way the old style worked much much better. some time simpler is better
