A performance enhancement component, this product is a direct replacement for the original equipment manufacturer’s (OEM) valve within a motorcycle’s suspension system. It modifies the damping characteristics of the fork or shock, impacting the flow of oil and thereby affecting compression and rebound. An example of its application would be installation in a sportbike fork to improve responsiveness during aggressive riding.
Its value lies in its ability to provide a more refined and customizable suspension response, leading to improved handling and rider control. Historically, these products emerged as a solution to the limitations of fixed damping systems found in many stock motorcycles. The evolution of suspension technology has seen these aftermarket valves become a popular choice for riders seeking superior performance on the track or improved comfort on the road.
