Re: Question about the bumpers.

Brad,
The bumpers last year were one of the most discussed and complained about system. I would ask yourself this question. 'If I use the bumper and the mounting hardware I use fails on one side, what will happen?' I think you will see that a failure of this type will severely limit the function of your robot and it may be disabled if there is a threat of carpet damage. At most you will be asked only twice at each event to remove the bumpers for weigh in so make them secure.
