A mate had a set, went back 2/3 times before hes given up with them/sold them
The stantions wore through within about 3 months, the ATA/TST unit would let the travel pack down.

So No, don't buy them

I got a set of the very first XC700s. They failed on me when air started leaking out of the bottom chamber into the top one. I sent them off to Windwave, got them back a week later and they've been just braw ever since. Very tune-able, light-ish weight, well finished.
