The ones STM sold me are 5mm bar. They ain't never going to break 
They did also sell a lightweight version though which used to break quick quickly (but lighter for racing....).

My Luego brackets lasted 500 miles! Suspect they may have brought them in from Lolocost?. Hope the ones I made earlier in the year last a bit longer.

How impractical/illegal is it to have no front wheel arches?
who says you can't drive a kit car when you're 6'5"?

So it's very impractical, but not illegal?
Interesting....

It will earn you a £30 non endorsable penalty notice under "no wing/mudguard fitted".
To add, mine are made from 10mm concrete reinforcing rod. I've got rid of the bounce in them now and they're fine.
