Down side is the need to end mount the bar. But at your light loads
and relatively small travels this shouldn't be a deal-breaker.



Why can't the bar be multi position mounted as long as your mounts can clear
the V Pulleys on two opposite sides.
Won't the 2 V pulleys on opposite sides bear on surfaces in all four
directions, left right, up, down???
In fact, as far as the bar is concerned, each direction has two alignment
surfaces from the V of the pulleys.

If you set the edges of the bar vertical, they could be mounted all along
one horizontal side with a narrow web type of mount.
