Hi. Has anyone ever seen a roll bar similar to the HD Deuce? I like the kinda retro/AC Cobra look, but don't fancy paying 1k+ to get one from the US. Anyone know of something similar available in UK?

So they do (well just found a little picture of one on their site anyway) result! - would love polished steel but guess that would be mega bucks.

It'll rust as it won't be stainless. You could however get it chrome plated... but as it comes is cheapest

Yeah realistically black is the best option.

I make one that's kind of similar, the hoops cross over to form an X rather than being separate. Made from CDS tubing and ties down to the chassis.

Also, James Handy has one of the Safety Devices ones. I don't know what to call it ... a very solid, over designed style bar? It sits on the parcel shelf, but it's the flat bar that sits on the shelf. It ties in to rhe sest belt mounts as well ... from memory when they first sold them, they were marketed as Roll Bars but later on that changed and they called them style bars.

I've been looking for a twin hoop one as well for the same reason (also being able to flip the top back up without leaving the drivers seat is a bonus!). This is the one I've been checking out. My main concern is safety over style. I think it looks better but it doesn't seem to be as sturdy as something like this. I'm sure the TR twin hoop isn't just a style bar, but short of testing each one (no, thank you!) I'm not sure we'll ever know.

Yeah the TR lane one looks to be the best bet - I'm sure its not just a style bar either.

They have the same mounting points so should be as good in an accident as one another...
