Does anyone know if Arens have their new arms made for Cannondale yet?

Is anyone running Lonestar A-arms on their dales? I'm trying to decide which brand to buy. Im wanting standard travel. I just wanted to hear some feedback on what everyone has experienced with them. Good or bad.

What size arms were you looking for in stanrdard travel??? I have made some calls and could tell you what I know about +1 arms.

i'm wanting +2 or +3 in standard travel. Does anyone know what width +3 arms would give with ZPS shocks? I want 50", but no more (with me on the quad). Is anyone running Dura Blue axles? What width do you have. I have around 48". Does Lonestar or RPM give 50"? Has anyone had any problems with those brands?

I think that +3 arms and 4/1 offset fronts give you the 50" you are looking for. That's what I'll be putting together.

I have a DuraBlue axle that I haven't seen yet. It is the Eliminator 2+2 deal so I should be able to have 48" or 50" with it, depending on if I use the spacers or not. At least that was the intentions when I got it. As far as I know that is the only DuraBlue they make for a Cannondale.

I have the Eliminator in mine now, and I only have 48". I want a setup that gives me 50".

Do you have the spacers in there? I was fairly confident that it would get you to 50" - then again, I've been wrong b4. tongue.gif

Try using some 400ex rear hubs, they should work. I know they work on Lonestar axles, but not sure about you durablue. They will give you your extra width

Did you check out our a-arms?. they are built to "moto" specs, and we also build them in +1,2 for the standard length shocks.
