I've had a J&L one for several years. It's fine. Something like half of the weight saving comes from ditching the pentaclip, so you definitely want an integrated one.
Also the early tapered ones (for pentaclip use) had/have a tendency to crack at the diameter transition - not sure which brand those were. The integrated ones don't have a transition.
