I'm not disappointed in Stipes. I figure they will last me for the rest of my life. But John Holland's, at least the rears, served OK for 17 months.

So I'll be putting the Holland shocks up for sale on the Swap Meet page shortly, if anyone can use two good ones and two leakers.

In all fairness you should have communicated with John Holland before you criticized his product on this forum. Hopefully you did as that would be the truly
Professional thing to do. Did you give him a chance to correct the problem ? Wayne
