General description

XXT Mono shock absorber – the direct evolution from racing. Thanks to its versatile adjustment options, the Bitubo XXT shock absorber can be easily adapted even when installed.

The development of this damper culminates in an overall weight reduction through the use of an aluminium body – an important point to adapt the handling to the rider's requirements. Furthermore, a new set-up has been developed to further orient the XXT towards racing performance. An upgrade for optimised performance and simplification of the adjustment of length and hydraulic spring preload has also been installed.

The aim is to offer the rider precise control and maximum grip, even at extreme lean angles or during rapid changes of direction, as well as even tire wear. It offers maximum confidence when accelerating on all street surfaces and perfect stability of the rear wheel, even under the hardest braking.

Innovation also prevails inside the damper. With technically new solutions, the damping coefficient and stability at high temperature are improved.
By using a piston rod with a 14 mm diameter, sliding behaviour is improved, while the Ø30mm separating piston reduces uncontrolled movements of the hydraulic oil. These improvements lead to a reduction in inertia forces and thus enable immediate control of oscillating spring movements.
