Just a thought, in the event of a roll over or barrel rolling, wouldn't a roll bar NOT attached to the roof, NOT be influenced/affected by the dramatic shifting/contorting of the roof & the attached body?
Are there crash studies that support the added benefits of the roll bar being attached to the roof?!
