Was checking out your frame.does all these invader frames have no straight down supports from the top rail down to the bottom rail,like under the windshield and between your diagonal support bars.I noticed this also on bmoores buggy he got for his wife.looks to me like the front would twist or flex more causing it to break where the top rail bends down to the front beam.I don't know was just wondering cause on the older explorer frames where they had straight rails on the bottom and bend down on the top to the front beam use to break bad at that bend.maybe they were to stiff and did not flex enough.hmmmm,now my brain is thinking.Chad :mrgreen:

Ive rolled it over a couple of times, nothing major tho, and it hasnt bent or anything. i have those little braces on that slanted bar and inside my halo has an xbrace in it and it seems to be doin pretty good. The top bars are thick walled pipe also, so i guess that is helpin with bends.
