Chromoly Hicas Lock Bar

[TurboDoseBro]

Hey guys, I have read on a forum topic that there are such things as chromoly HICAS lock bars. I was just wondering where to get them from so can you please point me in the right direction.

Reason being the weight factor. Poster states he removed his old bar and replaced it with a chromoly one and it proves to save a lot of weight.

Steel bar (assuming it is from the said weight): 6kg-8kg

Chromoly bar: 0.5kg

Thanks

I've neve seen a lock bar bar the weighs 6-8kgs!

Even a solid bar in that length would not come close

reading his post I'd say his never weighed anything accuratly!

A chromolly bar can be made but will cost you 3 times as much and with the ammount of material in it there will be stuff all weight saving.

I use Molly daily for suspension and cage work, for a lock bar just buy an ordinary one and spend the money Saved on fuel!

Ask someone who makes the normal lock bars how much they weigh, I don't think its much more than 1kg from memory.

Maybe email a sponsor who sells it ? http://www.isc-warehouse.com/index.php?mai...products_id=247

Thanks guys for the replies. I had PMed ISC Warehouse for the weight and they replied stating that it was roughly 900g to 1.1kg. I think that's fair.
