19mm BAT/SVT/SE sport (all the same, we think)
21mm BAT
7/8" Addco
24mm hollow "Aussie" (22.3mm equivalent)



Just to be anal let me point out two (very) small errors. First, the large BAT bar is 13/16â? or 20.6mm diameter, not 21mm. I know, I know, BATâ??s web site says its 21mm, but if you ask Eric he admits that they use the more common 13/16â? stock and just round-up (rather generously I would say) to call it a 21mm bar. And second, IF ATI makes any â??Aussieâ? bars they will be using 15/16â? or 23.8mm diameter stock, not 22.3mm as you listed.
