Default DSE Quadralink vs. Air Ride Airbar

How does the Airbar compare with DSE Quadralink? Any advice on what to purchase?

I can't say about the ride differences, but I know with DSE kit you have to cut your floor. The Airbar, which is the same as the Alston G-Bar (the orginal one) fits right onto your frame with no cutting. I've installed the airbar and it was very easy to install. I have coilovers with mine so it's adjustable for ride height.

I have a g bar but if I had it to do all over again it would have been DSE on all four corners. Just can't beat the quality and customer service period.

Did you have specific issues with your G bar?

Frank, are you going to be selling upgrade kits for the G-Bar? I'd also like to see adjustable lower bars to allow better centering in the wheel well. It seemed to me that the position in the wheel opening varies quite a lot with the angle of the spring perches. It would be nice to use the lower bars to center it and then adjust the uppers to set the pinion angle.

Thanks,
Don
