Are you concerned at all about the strength of the 1/16" wall? I am concerned that a decent hit might dent/bend one of your tubes...
That is a valid concern, however we have been using this type of tube for since at least 2007 and haven't experienced any problems with it. We do however make an effort to ensure that all frame members are adequately supported.
