Your elastomer will also depend on your riding style, terrain and other factors. If you ride on rough terrain or
ride aggressively, you may benefit from a harder elastomer. If you are a leisurely rider, who riders
predominantly on smooth tarmac, you may be able to use a softer elastomer.
Note: you may need an elastomer that is one grade harder if you are carrying any significant load. Elastomers
are stiffer at lower temperatures, and you may find you prefer to change to a softer elastomer in cold weather.
Two elastomers can be fitted side-by-side if necessary.
