Anybody have the chance to test these 2 and be able to compare them to one another?

If you get the denton definitly get the alloy instead of steel ,its only 20 dollars more,is rebuildable wont rust up and looks sweeter!

Get GPR, adjust on the fly, warranty lifetime, free service every time you send it in.
on denton you have to stop and adjust, would you do that? I wouldn't. Where are you find that type of warranty and free service.

ATV Sport just had an article on the big name stabilizers. I left it at work or I would tell you what it said. Pick up a copy and see for your self. The Scotts or GPR would be great but the cost is about twice as much if I remember right. The only reason I could see needing to adjust on the fly would something like a desert where the riding area could change greatly during a race, or maybe a GP.

The stick type dampeners are $140~$160 (except for the WP which is $399!!!!!)
The handle bar mounts are $375 for the GPR & $430 for the Scotts.

For my needs (dune running) the $160 Denton alloy looks like it will suit my needs.

If I was a serious MX, GNCC or desert racer I could see where the Scotts or GPR would be worth the extra $$.

But for my type of riding the Denton alloy will be the one I get.

The Muscle, Speed Racing, New style Denton rebuildable, and Graydon proline dampers are all the same thing with a different sticker. Find the one that charges the least amount for their sticker...

Personally I run a WER. Scotts and GPR make good dampers, but I don't like their typical handlebar mounting. I do like the way they're mounted on the Cannondale's though.
