My guess is they work. I only got 1 ride on them before I pulled each 300 gram per tube and chucked it in the trash. They'd work better if they were solid. Why even bother with air at that point? The ride was awful, slow, hard, wooden, and lethargic.
I ordered a pair once.
When they arrived, I was shocked at the size and weight.
I never did install them.
They just sat on the shelf for a while until I unloaded them on eBay.
