A 6 inch bumper is what you'd want to use, especially this year, to help increase the amount of intake you can have. It'll also save on weight, making it easier to climb potentially. Here's a link to a 6 inch bumper and bumper cover: http://www.robopromo.com/product_p/rp-2018.htm

While saving on weight is usually good, it's pretty easy to generate enough power for a max weight robot to climb in a compact and light package. We used a 775pro in a 140:1 versaplanetary and had no trouble at all climbing in around 7 seconds.

Also looks like some awesome bumper options for teams to check out!
