Softride Suspension Stem....

I used a Girvin long distance, and it irritated the musculature around my wrists. Never swapped the elastomer, maybe it was too soft.

I've had this for years in a parts drawer . Its mainly aluminium extrusions with a steel stem , has elastomers

contained in a tube and is adjustable for rise , It also has provision for top loading the bars . Never been

used so I can't comment on its performance

The twisting action of he pivot may well have done you. Allsop may have worked better for your wrists.

Does anyone have information or a video on rebuilding those? I've got an older one that could use some maintenance

Thank you all for the feedback. Have to love this site for the amazing community.

Yes, I do believe in a week or so I'll see about grabbing a couple and giving them a go.

Will update with pics and feedback once I get one installed and some miles on it.
