    SFC's: Tubular vs Rectangular

    Fixing to buy 3-point SFC's but not sure which are better, tubular or rectangular? They will be weld in but curious as to the difference besides the obvious...

    Boxed (square) will give much more torsitional strength then the round (circle) cuz it's much harder to bend, twist or break a box SFC then a round one....
