SPECIFICALLY TUNED AND OPTIMIZED FOR DUNES & DESERT RECREATIONAL RIDING

Provides plush absorption of sand ripples, bumps and obstacles while improving handling, control and comfort. Front shocks are 2.5 in. (56mm) piggyback, rears are 3.0 in. (66mm) remote reservoirs. Both feature spring preload adjustment and special sand-specific valving and spring setup. This product provides you spring preload adjustability and therefore might require some testing and fine-tuning to suit your personal preference and obtain maximum performance.

SAND EDITION // VIDEO PRESENTATION

THREADED SPRING PRELOAD

Lets the driver fine-tune the initial force applied on the springs and precisely balance the weight distribution across the front and rear wheels while setting up the ride height (ground or chassis clearance) and to lower or raise the vehicle to adapt to various situations or to suit your personal preference.

To use, turn the preload adjustment ring clockwise (from top of the shock) to increase preload and raise the vehicle or turn counter-clockwise to reduce preload and lower the vehicle.

SAND EDITION // TECHNICAL FEATURES (click title for details)

  • Huge oil ports providing massive oil flow
  • Equivalent flow capacity upon compression and rebound stroke (1:1 ratio)
  • Low restriction of the oil flow = plush, predictable & consistent damping action
  • Less stress on internal parts = more durability and longer intervals between servicing
  • Components that are precision-machined from aeronautical grade billet aluminum
  • Sleek, lightweight reservoir with recessed cap to better protect the nitrogen valve
  • Ultra-light spring design with bigger outside diameter and less coil turns, providing important weight reduction while maintaing the reliability and intuitive ride-height adjustability of coil springs vs. air springs
  • Reduced weight and friction = less stiction and lower operating temperature = more resistance to fading
  • Crossover spacers design that reduces the accumulation of debris, therefore reducing wear on the body
  • Optional lightweight composite shock protectors to provide further protection against roost and other debris
  • Neutral look and colors that blends well with any quad model and livery
  • Hard-anodized aluminium internal floating piston for low operating temperature
  • Aluminum body that dramatically reduces overal weight and better dissipates heat
  • Hard-anodized to very tight tolerances to improve durability and further reduce friction
  • Special thread design on the aluminum body that provides more surface and less friction to making preload adjustments much easier
  • Helps relieve peak pressure upon impacts
  • Factory-set, no need to adjust
  • Provides race-level performance without the added complexity of a separate high-speed adjustment
  • Provides a smooth surface that helps reduce internal friction inside the body
  • More durable finish than regular sulphuric anodization generally used on lower-end products
  • Hard chrome-plated shafts
  • Seal head design is composed of external dust wiper, high-pressure step-seal and o-ring
  • 46mm shocks also feature a double dust wiper to further prevent debris for entering the shock
  • Low-friction o-ring material is certified resistant to greater temperature changes
  • High material memory that helps maintain sealing properties in harsh conditions
  • All sealing components are premium quality, carefully selected for their optimal balance of performance and durability
  • Fully synthetic proprietary blend
  • Ultra-low friction light viscosity grade
  • Ultra-resistant to high temperature
  • Extended usable life
