Default New Grab Bar, Any Suggestions?

Broke the the oem grab bar on my rappy, too weak and too many wheelies. Going to order a new aftermarket one this week and was leaning to the DG Ultra-Lite, but was maybe considering a grab bar with a rack (armadillo). Any suggestions or problems would be appreciated.

Myself I like the looks of the PRM products, and they seem reasonably priced. A friend has one on his banshee, and it looks and works well.

I bought the Armadillo six-pack rack from Rocky Mountain and returned it, the holes were drilled off center to the wrong side so the only way it would fit was upside down which then it's more like table than a six pack or by grinding away at it to make it fit which then would make it too weak to carry my cooler. When Rocky Mountain recieved it they compared it the rest of there Armadillo six pack racks and said they had the holes the same... so I got my money back! Hopefully that was just a bad shipment, I wouldnt recommed the rack I got to anyone, even the finish and welding was sloppy.
