Probably half as resilient as the 28 holes version, but it's not a problem I encounter on my commute. Putting air into the tyre seems to be a much bigger problem, and that even using the special head thingy that screws on... just a very bad design, made worse by the radial spoke pattern, the rear is not so bad. There was no need whatsoever for 28 spokes on a 16 inch front wheel, unless one plans to carry another person on the handlebar.
