I have a Deluxe and am fairly new to cycles. What would be the benefit of this?

Thanks!

The product looks good, but I don't want to be the first one to try them. I wonder where the compressor mounts at?

Yep, Anubisss, time to change out the sig for a new pic with those black tins.

I saw that kit.. I think (not positive) it's made by some company in Mexico.

Anubisss, you've been struggling over air-shocks forever.. Break down, do the Progressive kit, then love it.. the company is HUGE.. You should get excellent support, which is a big thing with these air systems. Otherwise the Works kit. Either way, they ain't cheap and you get what you pay for. If I had to buy some other shock right this minute, it would be the Progressive 422 (the standard shock 1/2 of the air tail system.. just two conventional shocks instead of a full air-ride setup.
