The dampers have been designed with a large bore (36mm).
The bodies hold more oil and run cooler over long periods than the 32mm,
bore shocks, and the range of spring rate on the dual spring set up
enables the rider to fine tune the springs, so as to obtain exactly the
right 'feel' to the suspension. Two types of damper are available in
this range.
A
straight damper with the gas reservoir inside the top of the body, or
the 'piggy-back' style, with the gas reservoir on the side of the shock
body, as
part of the mounting bracket. This style of shock not only holds twice
the oil volume as the straight shock, but as the reservoir is away from
the damper body, better heat dissipation is obtained, resulting in a
cooler running unit with more constant damping characteristics. |
