From what I've been told by Internet experts, for what it's worth, that the TDS/NYB bow bar is the same bar sold by Westside Barbell and Crain's Muscle world. Those two just repackage and resell it with a mark up. This was off a bodybuilding.com forum post I found while researching all three. I really wanted the Duffalo bar because I know Chris is an anal perfectionaist and wouldn't let it leave his factory unless it was perfect, but it will have to wait.
