The advantage of having shocks versus none, is like the ride difference between a car and a baby buggy.
I am sure, particularly with the likes of Brent's statement, that Stipes shocks are better than rebuilt Houdalle's, but the rebuilts are tremendously better than none, and a lot less money if that is a concern. There have been a lot of posts from dissatisfied tube shock owner, particularly the front shocks. I believe the reports reflected tube shocks that were built for a heavier car.
