True. The multibag systems offer safety and stability. However, if you
prefer the better ride of the OEM design, that is where the single cone bag
fits. Pay your dime and choose the crime.
Frady, Mondello and McNeal were all great. Discussion on torsion and weights
was interesting by Sirum.

Byron,
I'd say the Frady system works like Chuck Aulgur's Dual Bag System sold by
Jim K.

Correct ballpark on the price. The design isn't like the two-bag since
there's the "hinge" in the middle that connects at the base. Some shock will
go to that point. It's inherent in that design. However, the ride will be
somewhat similar. There is a difference in the bags. Firestone didn't design
those bags (double convoluted) for horizontal use. They don't have a sleeve
and cone so there is no rolling absorption effect.
Look more closely at the design and think it through. Then, make your
choice. The customer has options and choices. There is no "best answer to
the discontinued Firestone". Personally, I want information and not hype or
a sales pitch. I can make up my mind if given accurate information. You,
too, have that right.

And, Matt did just that. No sales pitch, just very good information. I really appreciated the way he made his presentation.
