Well I think that anything is better than nothing... that bar is 3 parts. The 2 ends and the bar itself... they are connected by only 2 screws. Those translate into piviot and weak points.

Those kind flex and move... exactly what they are designed to PREVENT. There are better ones (ex NEUSPEED) that don't have "connection points" like that one does.

So that one... probably better than nothing... but you'll see a bigger diffrence with better results if you had a solid one.

Don't have to take my word for it, check out this:

neuspeed seems to be a good one, just remember, you get what you pay for in most cases.....
