What is Low Speed Compression?
Low Speed Compression on a shock refers to the rate at which the shaft compresses into the shock body. It typically happens during cornering, braking, accelerating, or when driving over large rolling bumps. Since shocks must first react slowly to a bump before moving faster, low-speed compression can also be noticeable on high-speed bumps, especially if they are small and frequent (like washboard terrain) or if the valving is too stiff.
When would I need to adjust Low Speed Compression?
What is High Speed Compression?
High Speed Compression occurs when the shock compresses rapidly, typically in response to more aggressive impacts, such as hitting curbs, speed bumps, whoops, or similar obstacles. This isn’t necessarily tied to driving speed but to the intensity and quickness of the impact.
