I also got a couple made with "radiused" bends (and beaded) as I was putting a swiftech block in what was approximately a 2U case and had concerns with how restrictive the JohnGuest 90 degree adapters appeared to be (looked like milled elbows). Note that I use Eheim 1046 pumps a lot and so am always looking for ways to "finesse" water flow rather than relying on "brute force". Wish I'd taken some pictures before I'd handed that one off to a customer.
Finally, I really
like the way the JG Speedfits allow tubing to rotate. Removing rotational torque from your hoses means one less force trying to pry the waterblock off the CPU - IMHO a good thing.
