Featuring the innovative Frequency Sensing Technology (FST), these shocks automatically adjust damping based on the frequency of bumps encountered, providing a smoother and more controlled ride. The shocks incorporate deflective disc valving for precise tuning and optimal performance across various terrains. With a pre-load spring that can be adjusted by hand without special tools, riders can easily customize their suspension setup to match their preferences and load requirements. Included is a progressive-rate spring, designed to offer a comfortable ride while handling heavy loads efficiently. These shocks are high-pressure gas charged, ensuring consistent performance and reliable damping over time. Made in the USA, the 11-inch length of these shocks may slightly alter the head angle, contributing to quicker steering responses, especially on larger or more aggressive bikes. Conversely, shorter shocks can result in a marginally slower steering feel, so it’s important to verify your bike’s wheel travel and clearance to prevent contact issues with components like the swingarm, exhaust, or chain\/belt guards before installation. These shocks are particularly recommended for heavy-duty applications where maximum load capacity is regularly exceeded, making them suitable for riders who demand durability and performance under tough conditions. Proper installation and adjustment will ensure optimal handling, ride comfort, and longevity, making the Progressive Suspension 444 Series shocks a reliable upgrade for serious riders seeking enhanced performance and control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eFrequency Sensing Technology (FST): Automatically adjusts damping based on bump frequency for smoother rides.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDeflective disc valving: Ensures precise tuning and consistent damping performance.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003ePre-load spring: Easily adjustable by hand without tools for personalized setup.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eProgressive-rate spring: Provides comfort and support under heavy loads.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eHigh-pressure gas charged: Delivers reliable performance and damping consistency.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eMade in the USA: Quality manufacturing for durability and trust.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eLength variation considerations: Slightly longer shocks may quicken steering; shorter shocks may slow it down.
