Granite Broke suspension arm, should I buy RPM or stock

[shingo]

I have the choice for 8$ CND for the stock pair or 15$ CND for the RPM pair?

If the RPM is really great I will buy that, but I have read mixed result with them.

What do you guys think?

I was thinking of buying 2 set of front and 2 set of rear just in case.

Just be prepared to finish the manufacturing process for the RPM arm since they only half bake them, charge more for them, and tell you to pound sand when you ask them about it.

So what you are saying is I should just buy 2 oem for the price of one RPM instead?

I just dismantle the broken one and it broke because I hit a metal rail right on the arm and made a big dent in the plastic and it also broke. So it's clearly not from a jump or anything.

I think I will just buy 2 oem set for the front

Is it rare to break a rear one? Should I buy a set in advance too?

I would buy a few sets at $7 a pack.

If you bash in sub 40 temps, buy several sets of stock arms because they shatter like glass in the cold.

I have to say, the Arrma granite is really well done for tear down, it took me a few minutes to replace the arm.

Damn, I was hoping to ride it in sub -20F temperature
