Re: Bumpers vs Frame which is better

Our team is currently regretting our lack of bumpers. In the second match of the final round, we fell over, and got hit repeatedly. This was the straw that broke the camel's back, so to speak, as we had been taking a beating all the time (because of our fantastic shooter). Two welds broke, our main 120amp breaker broke, and our electronics box is now skewed. We had to hold the back part of our frame together with zip ties for the final match . It was funny, but we now regret the no bumpers decision.
