Kevin---A rear anti-roll bar only effects "ride comfort" when one of the
rear wheels hits a severe bump. This is when the force of the bar acting
on opposite wheel adds "spring" to the wheel that's trying to deflect.
Ride comfort is not changed when both wheels act in concert, as when
going over speed bumps, tar strips, or deep rain grooves added to
pavement. It would be the same for an anti-roll bar on the front
suspension.
