The label "Factory" says it all. The best technology we have to offer is available in our Factory Series models, including our ultra-durable original Kashima Coat that ensures smooth running.
The quality air shock with a 2-position Open/Firm control lever that maintains high and low speed compression settings has received many improvements since the 2025 model year.
From the outside, the 2025 model does not look so different from the previous version, but most of the changes are inside:
• New base valve piston design and compression tuning increase damping performance and improve responsiveness
• The new package of case seals practically eliminates the possibility of aeration
• New seals for better durability
• New shock absorber body made of stronger duralumin alloy AL7000
• New shock absorber shaft surface treatment made of hard chrome for increased durability
SPECIFICATION:
• suitable for use on bicycles: Trail, Allmountain, Enduro
• compression control with a two-position lever on the damper body (Open-Firm)
• 8-position high-speed compression (HSC) and rebound (HSR) settings match those of the GRIP X2 suspension forks
• HSR now uses Variable Valve Control technology
• piston rod surface treatment: Kashima
• compression setting: Low
• rebound setting: Medium
