I've had nothing but problems with my ARI handles. Because of the anti-roll design(which does what it says, doesn't allow the bar to roll in your hands), the padding ends up getting torn from the aluminum bar. I've had handles last less than a month. Their previous design was much better. It allowed some roll in your hand so the padding didn't have so much stress on it and separate from the bar. The replaceable bar is nice though, so if you can get a SL handle without the anti-roll design, I would go that way. Personally, I got sick of replacing handles and tried the LG handle and love it. I have a full season on it and it still looks great.
