Shock absorber POLINI 173.0502 front - Vespa Smallframe 50 to 125, PV, ET3 (PK only with old fork)

The Polini shock absorber 173.0502 is a high-quality, hydraulic front shock absorber for classic Vespa Smallframe models. Compared to many standard shock absorbers, it is tuned to be firmer and ensures a more stable ride when braking, turning and on poor roads. Practical: the spring preload can be infinitely adjusted to the rider's weight and setup.
