I'm starting to think more and more about just fabbing up my own front bumper because none of the ones on the market really do everything I want.
I haven't taken the front bumper off yet to have a look, but I'm just wondering what the dimenions are on the front of the frame? Do they interface well with any standard tube shapes so you can easily make bumper mounts that slip on? Or do you end up making a box with custom dimensions?
I like the design of the Trek front bumper best out of all of them but it's still not quite right.
Related to this, why does the Trek use a frame sleeve

instead of just having the winch basket integral with those sleeves?
Is the RTE similar?
Just wondering if some sort of frame sleeve is mandatory on the Disco vs. just having the frame mounts integral with the rest of the bumper.
