Hey Andy
The tubular bar is like the rovacraft one and terrafirma ones.:) IMHO They suit Defenders better (better approach angle and look nicer :P ) and are a lot lighter than an an ARB. Dont get me wrong the ARB bars are a great bar and handle Roo strikes really well and are tough as guts in construction, only problem is they are quite heavy.
The choice is up to you though, if you like the look of the tubular bars over the ARB, or you want the Roo strike protection of the ARB then you would get that over the tubular.
As much as people rant and rave, the end decision will ultimately be yours.:)
What other plans do you have for Thomas??
