Pinnacle T45 or StudioRSR roll bar/harness bar

Hi all,

I'm torn between the two bars and I'm curious if anyone has some feedback they can provide.

Pinnacle Motorsport claims to have the lightest bar, but after scrolling through IG, I'm not sure if I'm happy about how theirs fits.

Anyone here have the Pinnacle bar installed ? How's the quality, fit and finish of the StudioRSR bar?

Thanks in advance!

-Frank

Pinnacle fit and finish for a bolt-in is very nice. Also prefer their mounting points vs RSR.

I have one of their original t45 single piece designs.

Post some photos when you get your bar! I'd love to see it.. Hard to see on their IG posts.

I’d go with the pinnacle bar as it mounts to an actual structural piece like the OG gts rollbar. The studio ones mount via to the floor which you will need to drill into I don’t know how structurally sound that is especially if you were to actually need the bar to function. The pinnacle bar weighs in at 40lbs also.
