brief:
- development of a damping system for forks using a single lever to switch from expanded to compressed to lockout mode
- constantly performing damping system producing low heat even under extreme conditions
- all controls to operate on-the-fly
challenge:
- to be remote ready
- to provide large cooling surface for the oil
- creation of lasting compressed state
- lower stanchion portion temperature to remain constant
result:
- consistent oil temperature by using the upper stanchion section as a radiator
- as a consequence consistent operation even though using less oil
- significant weight reduction
- only known system with permanently working rebound lockout
