We have tested them and when you go up to 125psi we stopped.
Some are raising the rear higher then factory specs.
We are going to be replacing the spacer soon with one that will be one
inch longer.
We pulled this old design off the shelf from 1996 without double checking it.
Like anything we sell, we will issue full credit and also pay freight back.
Summer is a very busy time and it gets tough to make changes quickly.
We know of the problem and have admitted it.
Should you not want to wait, Call us and we can work out a special
deal on a Q Bag .
