ROB at RAGE is an unknown quantity at this point
Bar Hieght

I did not measure , but it looked be about as advertised in the field blue print.

It is welded aluminum and quite soft, we bent it noticeably when we hit a good pace. Force enough to break a 3/8" 42 tooth cast steel sprocket that had lightening holes in it. an amazing thing is a 6" diameter 3/8" thick polycarbonate pulley bolted on the sprocket had just a little dent in it. If the bar gets a lot of abuse it may get a little shorter.

The robot hit it due to not being folded down correctly. It did go under a couple of times in later matches.

Going under can be effective in clearing out boxes form your opponents zone.
