16", phsaw. Get some old-timers in here to tell about the 14" bar, as well as the two previous bars...

The 14" bar was '03, and a large number of robots tackled it. A fair number lost their rotating light covers to bar impacts... but very few got anywhere near stuck.

Yup, low bar isn't anywhere near impossible. Heck, 'Snow Problem is building with the explicit goal of shooting in the high goal of the tower and crossing under the low bar, using the kit chassis. It isn't the easiest set of constraints to build around, but it's nowhere near inpossible, especially if you ignore scaling the tower.
