Saves about 4 pounds on the whole set. No one will accept a roll bar made out of titanium, not that it won't work but all organizations set standards designed around steel tubing.
I'll see if I can find pics of the last one we sent out...

Mine:smile:. And I agree, its the wrong, easy way out of getting a proper roll cage
I don't care what organizations will and won't allow it, I am not going wheel to wheel racing. I do care about actual safety. If it is strong enough and safe enough and can work, I'd be for it. Just not sure if it is strong enough material for a rollbar. Sounds like you are saying it is. I wonder if we can copy the Comptech bar in titanium. That bar actually works unlike the mugen bar. What do you think Dave? Possible?

Titanium is a fine material for a harness bar, still would not recommend it for a roll bar.
Why not?
High cost of materials, higher modulus which means a need for thicker wall and it's difficult to weld because one needs to maintain a backing Argon purge for all welding. Figure a titanium roll bar would cost 4 times as much and save about 20% of the weight.
If you have an unlimited budget, I would be happy to build you what ever you want.

Thanks to those who have paid, I still need to get payment from 5 people to get the batch of harness bars scheduled for a spring delivery. I am holding the April delivery if we can get the payments in this week.

Can I still get in on this?
Update? Are these still being made for April delivery?
Hey everyone,
I have received five checks so we are still on for an April delivery. At this point my plan is only build as many as I have payments for so if anyone else wants to get in feel free to get in touch with me. I can add another harness bar to the batch for a little while.
Thanks Tim and everyone else who has helped make this happen!

Hi All,
Thanks for your patience on this job, huge build process with hundreds of cuts, sub assembly welds and set ups. We are on schedule to get the batch to powder coat this week so should have them packaged and ready to ship(fingers crossed...) next week. I am still waiting for one CNC parts too, met with the machinist on Monday and he is running them this week.
I'll try to keep everyone posted and contact each of you to arrange shipping payments and confirm addresses.
Thanks again,
Dave
