Hi, I'm looking for the same thing, or at least the guide rails.....
thanks

Wings and Wheels has them - http://www.wingsandwheels.com/page37.htm
US$76 for megaplex and US$122 for polycarbonate. The cheaper rails are
actually recommended because they're not as strong
I've not seen that - was it on the W&W site?
- Do you want your
guide rail to break? or your canopy?
What is the "procedure" for breaking a rail and not the canopy? Are
there situations where a canopy rail that doesn't break might protect
the canopy, say, if someone attempts to lift the canopy with the rail?
If the rail broke, I can imagine the screw(S) holding it to the canopy
might then crack the canopy.
Why, yes, I am a bit skeptical of the claim!
