I've been using a Sagma for ~1 year with no creaking from the elastomers. It did start to creak at the saddle rails to dropper interface, but I cleaned that off with alcohol and it stopped. I did, however, manage to bend the rails slightly somehow... I'm really not sure how that happened at 165lbs on a hardtail. You can buy new ones from Bikeyoke, but I'm avoiding that until it becomes a problem.
The suspension or the shape or the beads do the trick for me, I ride ultra endurance and haven't had any issues, including a 250-mile, 36-hour ride last weekend with no chamois.
