Cusco pillowball mounts...

Postby tangcla » Tue Oct 02, 2007 7:23 am

Will I lose ride comfort or get additional noise if I use Cusco pillowball mounts?

I assume you're referring to the strut pillow ball tops?

Altho anything in a pillowball configuration will carry increased road noise. But the tradeoff is less flex and more accuracy in handling dynamics.

You assumed right :)

Noise and harshness? OR just noise?

Less movement, means less takeup from a more 'flexible' component, so the trade off is generally noise and less premium ride quality which can be related to harshness. Many factors take place to make a ride all out Harsh.
