Default Addco 35mm Front Hollow Bar !!!

I just got a call from Strano parts letting me know the Addco bar was now available and at 11 lbs lighter then the ST bar i think im pretty hyped. I placed an order for the ST 35mm bar and they were nice enough to call me and let me know about this new bar. It will be a bit delayed and pricing isnt set but im looking forward to being one of the first to try it out

Will this bar have the same torsional rigidity as the solid bars??? Seems to me like it wouldn't. I am interested in the weight savings if it works as good as a regular bar.

The torsional character depends more on the outer part of
the bar than the inner (think moment arm and spring force).
So the inner part adds more weight than spring effort, ounce
for ounce, and might as well not be there.
