Ultrik rear sway bar?

Anyone have any experience with the Ultrik 19mm rear sway bar by Mini Mania?

I had it originally,
Had a problem with the slider links.
I switched to a 22mm bar with "stops" welded on the bar for the bushings. I heard of bars that don't have them actually shift to one side or the other after some "spirited" driving on the track. If I had to do it all over again I would buy a lighter hollow sway bar.

If you drive an S in a "spirited way" you should go with 22mm. Set it on the lightest setting and move your way up as you become more comfortable. Instead of a 19mm, then having to upgrading later $$$.

Lexlo, thanks for the advice. Saw the bar on e-bay, but probably will go with H-sport comp.
