General Description

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

The development of this damper culminates in a general 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 focus the XXZ on racing performance. An upgrade for optimised performance and simplification of length and hydraulic spring preload adjustment has also been installed.

The goal is to offer the rider precise control and maximum grip, even at extreme lean angles or during quick changes of direction, as well as uniform 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 14 mm diameter piston rod, sliding behaviour is improved, while the Ø30mm separating piston reduces uncontrolled movements of the hydraulic oil. These improvements lead to a reduction in inertial forces and thus enable immediate control of oscillating spring movements. Special attention was also paid to improving and simplifying the adjustment options, all of which are now located in the upper part of the damper.
