The noise shouldn’t be a problem, after all we all wear proper ear protection when we ride, don’t we?

This is awesome! And I guess, the maker considered the noise…

This is great, now where was the knee one when I kneeded it! (pun intended)
Anything that lessens trauma when departing from your steed is welcomed. My fiends joke with me these days as I am usually kitted out like a MX rider… but who will be laughing when they get roasties or worse when they take a spill?

I think it’s a great idea, as long as it doesn’t deafen the rider when it is deployed.

I agree with Todd that its all in the actuation. My system would constantly need replacement with either tethers or G-forces in day-to-day use, and I’d say they’re not cheap.
