Malossi

This compact and extremely lightweight rear shock absorber of superlatives is a product of the cooperation between the designers at Malossi and the Paioli company. It is made entirely of duralumin except for the piston rod and spring.

The shock absorber works via an oil-gas damping system with variable adjustability and rebound/compression control.

A pressurized nitrogen chamber forms the expansion tank.

This project was prepared and researched for a long time by the technical experts from both companies. Both companies have combined their experience to develop an innovative suspension system.

Thanks to three new adjustment systems, this suspension is amazingly versatile.
This improves the suspension capabilities both on the road and in racing:

Rebound adjustment to compensate for uneven ground as well as possible;
dual hydraulic adjustability in compression (separately for low and high speeds);
spring preload allows adjustment to the rider's weight.

Technical details

A look at the technical details of these special shock absorbers proves that they are currently among the best products on the market.

- Type: oil-pneumatic shock absorber with separate reservoir.
- Application: competition scooters.
- Piston rod Ø 14 mm made of 38 NiCrMo4UNI 7845 steel, hardened with 25-30 micron hard chrome layer (mm) (surface hardness of untreated rod HRC 55/60).
- Piston Ø 36 mm with two independent reed valves (one for compression, one for rebound).
- New reed valve system made of harmonic steel for extremely precise tuning.
- LUBRIFLON PTFEB 70 piston glide shoe (compound enriched with bronze).
- Sliding process takes place via DU GUIDE bush (this material is produced by sintering a layer of spheroidal bronze on suitably shaped low-carbon steel with subsequent impregnation and coating with a PT-FE + FB mixture).
- SEALTHANE 9345 wiper ring made of polyester resin
- Micrometric adjustment of spring preload using ring nuts.
- 24-position hydraulic rebound adjustability.
- Double hydraulic compression adjustability with 10 positions each separately for low and high speeds.
- Special low viscosity oil, not affected by temperature variations.
- External reservoir allows expansion of fluids inside the shock.

If you have carefully read through the technical details described above, it should have become clear that these special shock absorbers are designed for
