What were the reasons for going with stainless?

The main reason for using Stainless is because it looks cool. Strength is another added benefit. The 1 ¾” diameter .095 wall 304 stainless tube that we use is approximately 16% stronger than the same in 1020 steel. Also, stainless does not have to be coated, which will inevitably scratch either in shipping or installation. The cage that was installed in Velocity was scotch brited, which turned out really nice! Obviously using Stainless over mild steel will raise the cost, but I think that the added benefits will outweigh cost.
