BTW here's Jemsite on the bar around the time it came out. they have their biases, but generally the tecnical info is good, and this is WAY lighter, 1/3 the weight of the regular. It's not just a sleeve around a regular bar.

Honestly, if you prefer the allen-key tension adjustment style... yeah, it's a lot of work up front and it costs more money than just running down your collection of bushings, but how often do you play?
Realistically, is the $20 per bar THAT expensive, amortized across the hundreds of hours you'll be playing a guitar? For me, small upgrades like this that make a material difference to the playing experience are a no-brainer.
