My point exactly: the Nivomat line offers no improvement on pavement seam and you still need a chiropractor or a dentist afterward. It can be unsettling when riding at night as I cannot always gauge how nasty a pavement seam it can be. On regular road, the damping is indeed better but that's not...

Damping is much better especially on regular/worn road surface, but typical US highway pavement transition or pot holes can...
