Roll Design 3+3

I just bought a banshee that came with a roll design 3+3 with works shocks and was wondering what everyone thought of the a-arms like that. Seems that most ppl are using a +2+1. I ride 90% in the dunes. Should I go with a different arm setup? What advantage is there to 3 forward?

 

thx

To be honest I just picked up this banshee but know nothing about it yet. I think the Roll Design arms are +3 width and +3 forward but dont quote me. I dont have pics yet but I'll try to post some tonight after work.

New Roll Design Arms are +3 width and +1 Forward and are LT Arms. I'm not sure about older Roll Design Arms.

welp this should tell you that they are very high quality arms..

 

i have a set of +3's i believe the advantage of that set up is many the wider arm will allow you to run an inset wheel and make your turning much easier and also reduce bump steer. the roll design ones i have see also use 87 warrior screw in ball joints, NOT std ball joints that can snap off if they are adjusted to far out. they are super strong and usually also have needle bearings on the mounting points. they are very high quality and not that chapo crap with hyme joint blow out BULLSHIT. they mostly however are non adjustable so if you have issues you might not be able to work them out. ( most bikes with frames that bent to need a-arms with adjustments need new frames anyways...)

 

you would have to measure them to know if they are +3 forward.. if they are the shock mount will mostlikely be at the back of the lower arm and the top wrm would wrap around the shock to get that much forward.
