For whatever reason, stoker preference for our team has her prefer a titanium post over the Thudbuster on the road. I would say a lot has to do with the constant movement and seat to pedal changes.
Off-road, our Fandango is Thudbuster LT equipped. It is very well suited for true xc rides and has taken the edge off of roots and other abrupt features very well.
Comfort is the key and if the Thudbuster delivers the goods for you, that's the way to roll.
