Does anybody have any pics of places your 300ex frame has broke or cracked, or even just tell me where your frame has cracked. I'm tryin to see what parts of the frame has broke so i can make it stronger. mine broke on the left side right where the footpeg bolts onto the frame.

From what I have herd the only weak spot is arround the foot pegs!

cracked it where the pivot bolt goes through the frame.

that gives me a good idea of things to improve.

yeah i know of a friend whose broke there. of course he was taking some big jumps, but anyways thats not the point.

the the upper shock mounts and the frame part by the footpeg. i'm sure there is a way to make these stronger.

it seems to be the left footpeg you need to watch. right where the dwon tube and bottom frame rail comes together

I wonder why the left side breaks so easy.

maybe the right side is built a little beffier since the brake pedal is on the peg

i also know of someone who broke the shocks. like the top part of them where the bolt goes through to hold them on.

Yea i've broke my shock before the right one if your sitting on the quad.
