3 years ago took out a 6 point MS roll bar, installed an 8 point CM roll cage Aprox. 20 Lbs. lighter even after adding more tubes. This is just my opinion but given the choice I see no reason not to go with CM, yes it's more expensive and requires tig welding but think back to the first question anyone asks' when looking at a car.... "is it MS or CM?" On a full cage and frame the weight savings are substantial.
