Well, I’m definitely willing to spend more to get the best ride. I’ll check them out.
As for the current ride, it’s is borderline dangerous at high speed. I’m not taking about the bucking but just the lack of any absorption of any bump. If both my front hit the same bump, hold on, we are going for a ride.
