Quite a cost savings there ... albeit at the expense of a quick pit-stop  |
Not to mention the cost savings when it comes time to replace the shock
I've owned both ESA and non-ESA bikes and for me (once the novelty wore off), I found myself setting it to one setting and leaving it there. IMHO it's nice if you are constantly switching between one up and two up, but if you are like me and always ride one way or the other, it didn't seem like a worthwhile cost.
