i have been using Gabriel absorbers for 2 years now and the ride feel is hard but takes a while to 'warm up' as i find that after parking overnite, it tends to sag a bit & feels soft thn after driving for 2-3km thn its ok and back to the hard setting(not sure if mine is faulty)...
rebound rate and body roll is also not too bad using Gabriel.
i think coz the rebound rate is shorter kot!
