2-Way Adjustability
Be glued to the track: 2-Way adjustable shock
If you’re looking for a value-packed shock absorber, either for racing or track day riders on a budget or for street riders, choose the line of 2-way adjustable shocks. This line of low speed compression adjustable shocks shares many performance charasteristics with the 3-way shocks such as ride height adjustability and rebound adjustability that does not affect compression.
Like all Elka shocks, they are valved and sprung specifically for bike model, rider weight, linkage ratio and type of track. Assembled under tight tolerances, they resist fading by using high quality seals and wearband with a special blend of top grade oils. All these features work together to keep you glued to the track!
KEY FEATURES:
* Compression adjustability
* Rebound adjustability
* Ride-height adjustability
* Can be modified or rebuilt
* Dynamometer-tested
* 16 mm (5/8") diameter shaft
* Threaded shock absorber body for preload
* High tensile chrome silicon springs
* Hard-anodized
* Stainless steel spherical bearings

3-Way Adjustability
Maximum performance and adjustability to meet the demanding needs of today’s top racers and the serious "track day junkie" who needs 100% control of damping adjustments.
Choose Elka's 3-way adjustability line of high-end road racing shock absorbers for unequaled performance. Elka Suspension hand-builds this series of shocks insuring each unit is valved and sprung specifically for bike model, rider weight, linkage ratio and type of track.
High and low speed compression device
This device provides independent tuning adjustments for high and low speed compression allowing optimum high speed stability and traction during cornering.
The high speed adjustability is used for the fine-tuning of bump absorption, while the low speed adjustability provides squat and traction control during cornering and acceleration by keeping the contact patch of the tire on the track.
Advanced manufacturing process
Elka Suspension hand crafts their shocks using high-quality materials assembled under tight tolerances. Elka is able to keep stiction and fading to a minimum by using high quality seals and wipers with a special blend of top grade oils. This translates in a shock that will maintain optimal performance during long and intense races or track day events.
KEY FEATURES:
* High and low speed compression adjustability
* Rebound adjustability (compression not affected)
* Ride-height adjustability
* Easily revalved and rebuilt
* Dynamometer-tested
* 16 mm (5/8") diameter shaft
* Threaded shock absorber body for preload
* High tensile chrome silicon springs
* Hard-anodized
* Stainless steel spherical bearings
HOW TO READ SHOCK FEATURES:
If the model begins with "H" then it has a hose mounted remote reservoir. If it starts with a "P" then the shock has a piggyback reservoir. For features;
R = Rebound Damping
C = Single Speed Compression Damping ("two way" shock)
X = High- and Low-speed Compression Damping ("three way" shock)
L = Adjustable Length
S = Hydraulic Spring Preload Adjuster
