Öhlins now offering front end upgrades to the Dual Sport and Adventure bikes


October 24th 2013

From the winning Öhlins technology, we are proud to introduce Öhlins cartridge kits for this segment.
Medium sized adventure bikes used in their right element on true adventures both on and off the road can now enjoy the improved comfort and performance from an Öhlins cartridge kit.
Öhlins R&D decided to go for a solution based on the successful Öhlins NIX technology to reach the goal of a cartridge that can deliver both comfort and performance, and go longer than an off-road kit between servicing.
The small design of the cartridge kit makes it fit easily in the upside down OE forks most adventures bikes are equipped with today. The kits are easy to install, just pop out the OE kits and install the Öhlins cartridge kits instead.
Thanks to the FKA100 kits from Öhlins the bikes now has a fully adjustable front end. Rebound damping is on one leg and compression in the other leg, with adjustable spring preload in both legs. Together with an overall improved damping system, the bike is transformed and can deliver so much more.
Different springs are available for riders individual demands as well as an effective hydraulic stop inside the kit to prevent bottoming.
After tests we feel confident this cartridge kit improves the adventure bike both in terms of comfort and overall performance. Fast gravel roads on a weekend or piloting around small trails to find the perfect stop for the night demands both comfort and performance. With this kit the bike delivers that.
