Re: Reversable Bumpers Illegal?

They don't want visible velcro because it can interfere with another bot's bumpers if they stick to it (or the carpet could, I don't know). If it's hidden behind the bumper and used for reversing, I don't see any issues popping up.
Teams have been using those for years, and this year's manual does not seem to word the rules there significantly differently.
