Default Help in choosing a beam

Hello All!

I am planning to put up my first tower and beam, the tower 25g braced
to the house at 20 feet 45 ft tall and a Yaesu 800ga rotator.

The Problem!

What Beam to put on top?

I have done my home work and currently trying to decide.

3 element Stepper IR (Looks good but, pricy! On the negative, if a
wire bus comes lose or breaks your SOL )

Mosley ta-63 ( all band but no f/b )

Mosley classic cl 33 + warc ( Looks sturdy but, traps, no gain on 17
meters )

Sommer (looks good but a bit of Rube Goldburg + Heavy )

Force 12 ( pop ribits and tuners ???????)

Tennadyne (same gain as 2 element yagi big! Swr)

I hope to here what the opinions are.

Thanks All
