Superflows make a big difference. I've never tried the regular flows, but I reckon from the look of them they're more a token gesture; not as effective as the supers or the Specialized offerings.
What I want to know is what accounts for the price difference between the SLR Superflow and Maxflow. I have a Super, am happy with it and want another for another bike, but reluctant to spend the cash. But saying that, the Max is expensive enough that I don't want to waste the money on one if it's not as effective.
Edit: Looking at SI's site, the difference is the Supers have a little more carbon in the shell, Ti rails and less padding. ~55g difference. I'd ordinarily just go for the Max, but it's for my weight weenie bike...bah.
