For me, bounce is the operative word. Over bigger bumps the Flyer will bounce enough to launch my butt off of the saddle. That's what happens when you have springs with no damping. Kind of useless off-pavement IMO, but it does add some comfort on reasonably paved roads. I put mine into service every so often (it's on my Clem right now) but eventually decide it's not worth the extra weight and off it comes again.
