SW Shock-absorbed handlebar (New)

Just saw this but not much info on it (scroll to the middle of the page): http://www.sw-motech.de/index.php?sprach_id=2

Hard to tell if it really works, but it costs EUR 229.95!

Can you imagine what they'd be like if you had to brake hard?! It would be like riding a clown's bike from the circus!!
