I'm running them, but I'm not sure if they're 'new' or 'old' style. Had them about a year, if that tells you anything.

So far I've been more than pleased with them. Decent ride, but I don't know how they feel 2-up, since I only ride solo. They are adjustable, though. I got them for $125 shipped, so I figured I wouldn't be out too much if they sucked.

I have them and they ride ok. I have them lowered as much as they can go, and have ridden 2up a couple of times. It isnt the most comfortable, but what do you expect for $100 bucks. I have not had any problems with mine either.
