FWIW, the stock @ 17mm diameter bar offers one fixed lever arm length
producing something like @ 30 - 35lbs of resistance, IIRC.  Hap's 1"
(@25-26mm) Schwartznegarian version OTOH, offers three lever arm settings,
and easily triples the stock bars resistance load, even at its "softest"
setting.  Somewhere in the list archives is a posting from Hap listing his
reported bars reported resistance figures.  mlp
