You got a proper pipe bender? not a rubbish one that crushes the pipe.

True, getting it in your bag may be tough!
My mate brings back all sorts of stuff, really handy too - but mind you, hasn't managed a bender yet

Yeah, good luck in trying to get a plumbers pipe bender to bend roll cage bars.
Your be best of buying the cage as a kit with the bends already done and welding it in yourself.
Harry hockley, custom cages are who you want to look at.
