Definatly cheaper but no physical address on the site or a suppy/warranty network. Not the end of the world but something to also consider. Price is very sharp though :up:

The alternative is to make one from Aluminium tubing using pre-made elbows/bends. There's really not much to a H-Bar so to make one is no effort and you don't need to weld either.
Some fella made one out of parts he got off aluminium walkers for oldies bought at the op shop.
When all else fails........read the instructions!

I didnt say no warranty, just not the same network of dealers which also helps with price to be fair. It doesn't mean no warranty but not the same as walking into the local dealer to claim against.
Your comments on the reliability are good though and I may order one of the smaller jobs for a project at work to see how it performs as its price and size are ideally suited.
