Try calling the Airbag Man www.airbagman.com.au

He would probably have set up a fair few cruisers.

Airbags don't necessarily create a soft ride though.
This is not legal advice.

If you want to dampen the ride over bumps then you want better dampers/shocks.

The Firestone Airbags are good quality. What makes you think they are made in China??? Just about everything is made in China these days doesn't meant its crap.
