Has anyone gotten some real seat time with these kits yet in some steep and deep mountain terrain? I haven't heard anything about the aro 3, someone must have gotten out and tested it by now.

So I was out last weekend with a few bikes in some deep stuff. I was on a 19 120LE and everyone else was on 129's. 1 with 2.5" and the other 2 were on 3". Needles to say the ARO 3 is bonkers. There were 2 instances where I had to let a lighter rider get my bike out of the stuff we got into and I rode their 3" out. If your aren't blown away by the extra flotation then the drive from the extra paddle will make you giggle. Im currently looking at option to swap out my once ridden 120 kit for a ARO 3.

Yes every group and friend I have has had the same experience... I really hope there are more 3 inch options next year... for me a riot with the 3 inch would be great.... the Riot is super nimble but the drive out of the 3 inch is undeniable and a big advantage ....

Exactly. Wouldn’t spool up quite as fast obviously but I think the trade off would be worth it for our conditions. Haven’t we been saying this for years?
