Glad you are happy!
You really only need rods if you want to increase the height by more than 50mm. And, while this looks cool and works on a parking lot, it does not really make sense off road because you end up with next to no droop left on the front struts.
That said, rods and the IIDTool / EASControl as a combination allow for unlimited height adjustment and adjustment from the drivers seat. We have more than one customer who still purchased the Llams or its Italian equivalent (I believe Zelatore did this too - very curious as to why). The only difference is that the Llams allows adjustment "on the fly" while the IIDTool / EASControl require that you stop, plug it in, and either make a manual change to the height settings or use one of the 3 "My Settings" programmable heights to make an adjustment. With the former, you lose about 45 seconds and with the latter about 25 seconds compared to an "on the fly" adjustment. But you have no installation (aside from snapping the rods in place if you use them) and no additional hardware to malfunction and cause issues. The Llams is a good product, but I don't see the need for both.
On another note: how do the tires affect your comfort? I find my MTs quiet for what they are, but they are still much louder than a normal tire. My wife wants me to get less aggressive tires
. Are the KO2s noisy? Comfortable?
