Default anyone make a roll bar or better top? G2

I was wondering if any company made a roll bar style or something stronger than the normal top. i seem to keep breaking my rear poles for my top any time i go off road. I like the top on there however i guess i can always take it off. Any ideas would be great thanks!

The stock poles should be fine for offroading Ive jumped my G2 many many times with the stock roof supports without problems. Can you post a picture you where the poles are accually breaking at? Thanks

the poles are weak.....I know of three carts out at my campground...(all g2's or 9's including my fathers which I've fixed twice now) that have had the rear roof supports snap right at the top of the seat.....I know some people use them as a handle when getting in or out but they seem to break just from the flex in the body...I used a very heavy aluminium rod which I stuck right down the inside and it has since snapped that too!....Now I used a steel rod and jb quick weld....

You can see if you like the top supports on my cart. We made them and had them powder coated. I abuse the $hit out of my cart and this top doesn't move. Here's a link to the thread with some good pics of it.

ya that top looks really cool. And ya the top has broken twice on both sides right above the seat. I tried a sleeve with aluminum but i guess i will go with steel. Sure wish someone made stronger poles or just a roll cage

I second this to I just broke my back poles for a Third Time. So no one makes a roll bar for this.

Lol I bought my G2 it had no top at all, probably never did.

Just last week I made a bikini top frame and cover for it and was wondering what the demand would be If I made them for sale. I will get some pics and post to get feedback.
