I havent messed with them on on road but they are very sensitive to temperature and have a very small tuning window on offroad. Most have pulled them out since you literally have to change oils just about every round. On road may not be so bad but not sure. IMO I think it is because the rebound is also progressive and goes from slow to fast instead of the other way around, so once you have met full compression it takes longer to get back to full rebound especially the initial movement.
