Not saying ac's are junk, but as far as strength for like woods riding and xc racing I would either go with prm, ive had one for a year and its still straight as an arrow, couldnt say that much for my old ac though, But i guess it depends on what kind of riding you do

I just gor a PRM Baja bumper I like it alot. There is a review on here for them http://www.exriders.com/productreviews/bajabumper.html They seem to be strong alot of the GNCC racers run them. hope this helps.

AC's new bumper is now swept backed and very nicely polished I just got it last week, its very nice.

I got mine off ebay from atvaddiction dirt cheap brand new still in wrapping for $65. Which is $25 less than what AC charges.

i have the PRM baja. Very nice bumper. I had a tough time deciding between the Ac and that though. I like them both very much. In my opinion i think the Ac looks a little better but i have heard that the PRM is a stronger bumper. And since i do alot of woods riding and running over small trees and bushes i want something to hold up.

I have a PRM desert, which has bigger tubing then the other PRM's and I still tweaked it hitting a tree during a XC race. And I didn't even hit it THAT hard.

i have a DG and the one thing i like most is how it sticks out farther than almost all other bumpers. its tough too, but not my favorite.

for looks, i agree that the duncan is sweet- $$ though.

i would go with the PRM baja, PRM is usually bulletproof although the bumper doesnt sweep the "looks" catergory.

BTW: arent bumpers supposed to take the shock of an impact, possibly bending to save your frame from getting tweaked?

they do take the impact....u cant go mow down a tree with a bumper tho....they take the impact when you hit something they bend....id rather replace a bumper anyday over a frame, a-arms, ect.

meek, are those maier? can you put a quadtech hood on maier?

Meek
01-29-2004, 12:51 AM
Ya, I just got them last night. I am sure you could put a hood on them. Not sure why, most of the time people put hoods on is because they have removed the front lights. I am not saying that if someyone gave me a carbon fiber hood that I would not put it on. It would get put on the next day, but nobody likes me that well, so I dont have to worry about that.

hahahahaah gotcha. i was just curious about the quadtech hood with the maier plastic. But anyway your ex looks pimped

Meek
01-29-2004, 12:59 AM
I tell ya what, you send me a carbon fiber hood and I will put it on to make you happy. You don't have to like me at all, just do this to make your self feel good.:D
