Simpson S versus Harness/Roll Bar
Give that the new Simpson S 3 point hans type device is out has anyone given thought to doing away with a roll/harness bar and 6 point harness for their new GT3/RS? I understand that roll/harness bars are not "roll cages but curious what folks attitudes are for using just the new Simpson S device for DE.

Ive a touring and intend to try the Simpson Hybrid S for a while and see how it goes. Can report back but can really only compare to 3 point (with nothing), or full harness, Hans and Cage.
Full buckets in mine btw.
Out of interest I saw this video just before. Good example of a low speed impact with and without a neck support.

I've been tracking with the Simpson Hybrid and 3 point belts. Yeah, your head is held back, but with a high speed crash, the 3 point won't really keep you in place.
I'm in the process of getting a cage and harness.
