Anti-Roll Bar

The anti-roll bar comprises a normally U-shaped round bar of 10 to 60 millimetres in diameter. The middle section of the "U" is attached cross-ways on the vehicle body on pivoting rubber mounts, its bent ends joined to the suspension. In this way, lever forces occurring on one side act to balance the opposite side. Anti-roll bars improve tracking, and thus the handling of a vehicle. At the same time, they also reduce body roll. The improved tracking makes cornering even safer and more comfortable.
