I love my add-a-leafs scott :D

Mainly cos I got them for £30 or something ridiculous like that! I've found that with astra shocks they work quite well!!!
No signs of springs bending yet and I've had them on for over 18 months

I don't think i said it WILL happen I said I have known it to and seen it happen ;) like I said some people have run them with good results, other people have had bad results and taken them off a few months later. It all depends on the condition of the rest of the leaves in the packs really.

Plus haven't you only got them on one end twiss?

Yeah I have, they are on the front (heavy) end though... been looking for another cheap set for the rear, but the shackles on the back are alright...
Haven't got caught up on them yet!!! The springs aren't too knackered yet either!!!
