Found these online but which do I buy?

Softness wise.

Re:

I use red on mine and im a heavy chap. The greens were too soft. This assumes ‘these’ are the same durometer as the original ones. Unfairly maligned flex-stems imo, they are perfect for reducing trail buzz.

Re:

Get a set of each. Cut and slice and you can have a rainbow Flexstem.

I think I read 90shore is about average.
I use original green elastomer in my Fkexstem, but what rating it is I have no idea..

I have some original NOS Flexstem rubbers here. Somewhere. LMK if absolutely needed I’ll take a look for them.

Re:

Which ones did people go for? I'm looking at the red Independent ones as I weigh under 70kgs and they look like all 4 are cone shaped
