Barney,
I have to think about that.
Without the bars the tongue weighs the ball down. Add the bars and they transfer some of the weight back to the TT and TV frames.
I would think amount of weight transferred to the frames is taken off the ball weight.
However, if the ball is acting as the fulcrum for the bars than it would seem the ball pressure would increase.
Since their appears to be no other way to transfer the bar tension to the frames except through the ball with the bar ends acting as anchor points, the ball pressure would increase.
Interesting mind game. Thanks
