do it i've heard good things about them and bad but mostly good just make sure you have them custom set to your weight and what your riding etc. and piggyback means that the shock has a bottle(reservoir) attached at the top which you can see on pics of elka that holds fluid for the shock to keep it working good and depending on the model has adjusters there too. and theres not really strenghts and weaknesses for them and they will help alot over stock
