When twisting a straight bar back and forth, WL vs Hotch vs eibach, Hotch is the strongest. It doesn't matter that its hollow. The more area makes up for it. It's called motion of inertia. WL is like 2.61cm^4, Hotch is 5.45cm^4 and eibach like 3.23cm^4. So even hollow it's almost double the strength.

HOWEVER...mounting holes play a role. If the Hotch is like 12" away from the bars center and the WL is like 10.8 on the first hole and 11.5" on the second hole, it gets some of that loss back. Not sure if it shoots to the lead but you get the idea. Only way to know is to measure each bar and if they're all the same really than the Hotch wins.
