As with the previous model, the EXT Storia Lok V3 offers the revolutionary LOK Technology that allows a complete compression separate lock-out system, now totally renewed with a new design from EXT, a more progressive opening, and a totally silent working.
In order to allow every rider to use a softer spring rate and increase bike traction and handling, EXT engineers have imported the ARMA the hydraulic bottom-out system named HBC (Hydraulic Bottom-out Control) into the shock, now capable to develop more than 50% of hydraulic force only on the last part of the stroke, allowing riders to avoid any kind of bottom-out issues.
The new technology in the EXT allows the use of thinner bottom-out bumpers, increasing the amount of useful travel.
The V3 is designed to serve those customers who want the maximum performance of a pedal-platform equipped shock, with great support on the last millimetres of bike rear travel, with the great performance of a coilover shock.
Free mounting hardware is supplied with every shock, when we contact you about your rider's weight riding style etc we will find out the frame details.
