Race-proven Panigale V4 suspension packageLast month we featured Italian performance suspension specialist Mupo's all-new 2020 Superbike fork, described as "setting a new landmark for high performance racing equipment", with features including a new triple tree bush system to increase flexural rigidity and DLC Hyperlox coating.
This month we have news of more new product designs from Mupo - its Ducati Panigale V4 suspension package, featuring a new AB1 Evo Factory shock and CSP30-R cartridge; this is the kit with which Mupo won the first Panigale V4 title worldwide in the Italian SBK Championship.
The AB1 Factory shock is characterised by the bladder technology inside the reservoir, which significantly increases feel and sensibility and allows continuity and reliability of damping from the first to the last lap.
Completely made of Ergal 7075 aluminium alloy (zinc alloy aluminium, as used in the aerospace industry), "the Factory shock integrates lightness, resistance and a high heat coefficient - all contributing to an excellent damping in the most extreme conditions.
"The sophisticated hydraulics, tested and approved by riders such as Alex Barros and Michele Pirro, has a CNC machined 46 mm piston, which gives more grip and control to the rider in braking, apex and exit of the curve".
Completely adjustable in high and low speed compression, rebound, spring preload and length, the AB1 Factory is the "reference point for the rider who wants to find the ideal setting and have a high-performance motorcycle".
At the heart of the CSP30-R is the Trough-Rod Technology, an innovative system used by top teams in the most prestigious competitions worldwide. This technology is characterised by the behaviour of the piston rod, which enters and exits the body of the cartridge at the same time, avoiding gas pressure imbalances and limiting oil dilatation.
"The result is a unique and uniquely homogeneous and progressive damping with grip and feeling at the front in the braking, apex and exit phases of the corner. The CSP30-R's performance is simply superior to the open, closed and pressurised cartridges currently on the market".
The compression and rebound damping are completely independent - together with the spring preload adjustment in both legs, this makes finding the perfect setting "simple, fast and intuitive".
