Just a heads up for those who might consider it... the Viper frame is made differently than the Cobra frame, so merely cutting off the front bar isn't as simple as it may first appear. The Cobra is engineered to have an open front and the design is "built in"; it's not on the Viper, and could very possibly weaken the top frame to the point where you wouldn't want to trust your life with it.
Very true Greg, I've done this before and added some bracing if it's required.
Ok, call me what you will.....but....if you want an open front climber......Why not just BUY it that way???
