Adjustable Air-Ride Suspension 6 Months ago  
Does anyone on here have any input on an adjustable air-ride suspension set up like Barrons or Tricky Air? I've been thinking about it for a while, but I'm a little weiry on durability of the product and the handling of the bike?

I've seen them on bikes on T.V. shows, but have no experience with them. I would be cool to adjust the suspension on the go with the flick of a switch though.

Re:Adjustable Air-Ride Suspension 6 Months ago  
When the mechanic was working on my bike he showed me another bike a guy let him go a little wild on, and it had an adjustable suspension. Apparently to can predetermine what the limits will be. He had it set so that the fender never really sat all the way down on the tire, so it could be ridden at the lowest setting. What was a little weird was the button on the side cover under the seat could be operated with the bike off. It would jack up and down, or anywhere in between, as long as you held the button down. He tried to tell me that the real point was compensating for weight, like with different passengers or luggage or whatever. One of my SUV's has that.
