Kraton No more T-BONE .... What are folks using for 6S Kraton bumpers now days ?

[Big Kid]

Just shattered my last T-bone front Kraton bumper and need a replacement of hopefully equal toughness
Searching I see RPM as well current OEM bumpers, aftermarket buffers for OEM etc ...

Those of you in the know ... how about some feedback on current Kraton 6S Bumpers ( Front ) and perhaps rear ???

Thanks crew

My stock bumpers hold up really well to big bashing. I’m actually not sure I’ve broken one. Just the little spring thing.

DURacing has already designed new bumpers and wing mount for the v2 EXB.

Seller can't even spell Kraton correctly .... Suspect ????

Not the coolest looking but functionally I think a stock Kraton EXB bumper with a 3DRC spring is best that's out there. I'm not sure which but Custom RC Upgrades or Scorched Parts sells a German T Bone knock off bumper for the Kraton.

They're asian folk, so English spelling is Not their strong point..

They can copy "things".. just not the words right in front of their face.
Most of them suffer from dyslexia, because they read from right to left..

that looks terrible bet its nose heavy with all that plastic up front I would go rpm or exb bumpers

I've used both the RPM and EXB bumpers.

The RPM bumpers work alright, but they wear out pretty quickly, and once they get pretty thin they're about useless.

The EXB bumpers last a lot longer, especially if you replace the spring with a 3D printed TPU one. Even when worn out, the structure of the bumper is such that it still works pretty well.

I'm happy with the EXB bumper.

Exactly fitting for that 2 dollar piece of lexan with some stickers that they throw on top of their top selling MT for nubs.

I have these. I run the Kraton Frontbumper on the rear of my K6s which works pretty good with the oem wheelie bar.

Really? I don’t think so, I actually think it looks bad a$$! I’d buy one if I had a Kraton.

POS makes bumpers. Oktay as well.

 

[King blitz]

I use no bumpers

 

[BruceRC]

Super basher on front with 3DRC loop and RPM front bumper/skid installed on rear.

If the Spring cassette is insufficient there are 3D upgrades on the web

I've worked with Hmong men for several years in the machine shop. They are great at machining. I see that they do that. Sometimes get the words backwards too in conversation.

I've got the super basher setup on the Notorious. RPM one on the K6. The super basher Arrma one is tough. I don't have much feedback for the RPM. But it is flexible like the rest of their products but not as flexy as their arms.

Ain’t joking. In fact, I just ordered one for my NOTO. I like the industrial look of it. To each their own, and smiles for all!

I wanted to add the EXB bumper to my K6 build but they were back ordered or out of stock everywhere. Grabbed an RPM. We'll see. Better than nothing. Even if it saves one A arm. Plus, I'd rather replace bumpers than other harder items.

Yea, when ordering the EXB bumper set this AM ... it being the LAST ONE was noted
