Carbon shock

Brief:

  • development of an ultra lightweight rear shock based on an existing damping system

Challenge:

  • deal with low heat dissipation of carbon components
  • keep oil chamber and damping system from existing model
  • use minimum number of modified parts
  • detail the lightweight construction

Result:

  • lightest serial production rear shock on the market (146g at 165mm eye-to-eye)
  • display the lightweight construction by additional machining of version specific parts
