TM Racing Shock Absorber Finally Here (Dec 6, 2011)
With over a year of development and testing in Grand Prix and World Stage racing by the TM Racing official factory riders in Motocross, Enduro and Supermotard the new TM Racing 'Factory' shock absorber is finally here.
Designed, engineered and manufactured by TM Racing this beautifully crafted new shock absorber, of which the majority of it's components are machined from billet and treated aluminium and even features a 'heat sink' type reservoir, has been born from the minds of the TM Racing factory engineers and Grand Prix Motocross technician Patriek Haydens. With decades of experience working with all types of factory machinery in Grand Prix Motocross Patriek has a reputation that is second to none in the GP paddock and this new shock absorber has been in his development and testing program all season.
Machined in house at TM Racing the billet aluminium anodised body and reservoir contain even more top quality parts that have resulted in a shock with the performance capabilities of 'factory spec' shocks, 'factory spec' shocks that are, for the most, unobtainable outside of the top factory supported teams.
TM UK were lucky enough to use this shock in anger at the 2011 Motocross of Nations and were mightily impressed with it's performance, so much so that TM UK have decided to replace the current Ohlins unit, that has given many years service but is now essentially quite dated in it's design and characteristics, with this new TM Racing 'factory' shock.
Another TM Racing commitment to quality, a 'factory spec' shock fitted as standard equipment on production machinery at no extra cost and fear not, this shock will be serviceable by any good suspension technician with knowledge of Showa / Ohlins suspension units and their available service parts.
Merry Christmas.
