With such a wide reach, Ohlins is able to gather an incredible amount of test data to bring you the very best performance money can buy.

* The result of 100 World titles in 3 decades of world championship road racing
* Suspension comes with independent setting of high- and low-speed compression and rebound damping
* The above features facilitate a large range of adjustments with equal increments of force all through the settings range – depending on the types of tracks and conditions; there is a facility to even change the shape of the damping curve.
* All preload and rebound adjustments have an effect on the piston’s flow of damping oil, but there is no effect on the shock piston rod or oil displacement volume.
* The damping forces of compression are unique – contrary to a conventional shock, any drop in pressure on the rebound side of the piston does not cause compression. In fact it results from pressure increase on the compression side.
* This results in reduced cavitation and makes it unnecessary to have high gas pressure in the shock reservoir. This leads to keeping only minimum internal pressure in the shock unit
* Excellent suspension achieved with low internal pressure - even the shock is subjected to a short stoke/high force.
* Piggyback style of shock reservoir provides better cooling to the shock oil for improved, continuous damping, and extended damper life.
