It sounds like the adapters are reusable. So at bag replacement time You could buy the bag only OR do you
have to buy the whole system over again? If you can buy the bag only what is the ID number. How much
weight do the specs say its good far. I know at my age(just turned 76) I most likely won't be
replacing after they wear out but younger folks may want to know. I like the feature of a little stiffer ride. Also
if I outlive you (I know its unlikely) I would like to know where online to get a replacement bag.

Wayne,

I am guessing you don't know about airsprings. Airsprings (what we call airbags) are used all over. Both the Alex and the sully bag arevvery common part numbers and what your are really buying is the adapters to make them work for us.

Knowing airsprings as I do, I would suggest that you pick one. Then in about ten years you should consider laying in a spare.
