I noticed that you can get Genunie Hepolite H Beam 4340 Steel Con Rods direct from the UK for considerably less than LF Harris forged ones here in the U.S., and far less than (for instance) Map Cycles' in-house H beam 4340 rods.
Any opinions on which are better? My initial impulse would be the Hepolites, but I'm curious to hear what people think. $230 seems like a decent deal for rods that presumably would last a lifetime and have less rotational mass than forged...?
