Thats a great question. I used two 1" tubes welded together for my "roll cage." Im not sure if it would do for a 60mph roll over but it seems damn sturdy. It does not have to be car-strong since there is much less wieght. Bending 1" tubing over 1/16" is VERY difficult to do by hand. No matter what you will need some type of tooling. I used a compact bender and a die I had machined.
