I have the eBay one. It was shipped quickly and works just fine.



I've purchased a number of items from the nopistons store and have been very happy.



The choice is yours, they end up coming out at about the same price.

While they may perform similarly, I think the Ractive one is a better product. The mounting plates are much more robust and have some real thickness. The generic eBay ones have thinner plates that are just stamped. The welding on the Ractive bar for the uprights is much better too.



Just my opinion, but I've dealt with both units.

I got about 9 of these in today, so if you wanted one last time and missed out, order from the store, they are on sale $44.99



Thanks

I got 3 of them in yesterday, supposed to have close to a dozen in next week.

I cannot tell from the pics, does the main tube have fixed ends, or does it have TRE/heim joints for lateral length adjustments? I'm not talking about the spherical eye ends where it connects to the mounts, I'm talking about just inboard of that.

The bar is threaded on both ends. It's adjustable in length, if that makes sense.
