there's a good reason why cages are not made that shape. they are not strong. it's bling only. look at any good modern roll cage and all the bars are as straight as possible.


Nick's cage work looks awsome. Hmm, S800 will need a half cage sometime.

I don't think Cusco confirm to any regulations, hence the above design.

The irony is, it would probably be lethal in an accident.

Both

CUSCO ROLLBAR AND ROLLCAGE

*40mm chrome molybdenum pipes used 33% percent lighter that a similar steel roll bar.
*Lightweight joints used Increased safety with competition roll bar layout.
*Mounted such to increase body rigidity.
Our bar layout is designed from extensive experience. Bar structures based on feedback from the track that looks good as it's effective. Designed from our extensive experience, the rigidity seen in the interior extensive piping is a feedback from our racing experience.

i garantee it will improve your cars structure and if you rolled your car you wouldn't find a screen in your lap but its no where near as strong as the one in this thread,

its a fast road/track day cage that also looks cool,

sorry i even bothered putting pics of it up as i didnt mean for any of this winging about it,

sorry HEL guys.
