It was definitely not one of those 2. It did a surprisingly good job of maintaining a smooth ride as I zipped down a old cobblestone road, yet when I stood up and hammered up the hill, I felt no bob or bounce.
I'm about the same size, and felt the exact same way. It smoothed out bumps and roughness immensely, but wasn't 'noticeable' when riding. Loved it.
