'Twice the weight of the original, though lasts twice as long'

Strengths:
It's stronger and probably needs to be as when I took the old set off my FSR I noticed the bolt was bent. Looking at the new design it shouldn't suffer in the same way.

Weaknesses:
Not sure about the claims to last twice as long, though the originals only lasted 3 months so I can't imagine it lasting less. Especially as I had this type of bush material on my old LTS and it lasted a reasonable time. Heavy compared with original though that weighed pretty much nothing so probably not an issue.

Overall:
Seemed expensive with the extractor tool (£30) though in the long run this should be a good upgrade as it will only cost me £4 every time I replace from now on, which is a fraction of the original which was crap.
