there doesn't seem to be much to figure out.  some people buy the one they 
like and that is awesome.  some buy the one they think looks better and 
that is great, too.  some just use the one they have and are happy with it 
(provided it puts the bars where they need it) and that is great, too. 
 some people use the one they have and then don't like the look and buy 
something that looks better to them.  That, also is very very good.
