• The M-Shock range was launched in 2012 by Mike Capon, who has forgotten more about shocks than most people ever know..... After designing and building shocks with EMC, Mike left the company a few years ago, and is now building his own range of shocks - at the Shock Factory in France -, already with plenty of race wins and two world championships to his credit.
• Primarily for a wide range of motorcycles, with over 400 models in the current range, Mike also loves to build shocks for trikes, quad bikes and sidecar outfits as well.
• These shocks are based around a twin tube / sealed gas cell design, to ensure consistent performance plus comfortable ride even when working hard and getting hot. Spherical bearings are used wherever possible to ensure proper suspension freedom of movement. Production quality and finish are excellent.
• All M-shocks are built to order at the Shock Factory to suit rider (and passenger/luggage) weights. As well as preload adjustment via C-spanner, the shocks have adjustable damping via a 48-click knob which adjusts both rebound and compression damping in balance.
• M-shocks are rebuildable and come with a 2-year unlimited mileage warranty, all at the same price - £390. A bargain for a top quality built-to-order shock!
• Also available for many of the bikes in the M-Shock range is the M-Shock2, which offers independent adjustment of rebound and compression damping via separate 48-click controls, giving a wide range of options in matching bike characteristics, road conditions and rider preferences. Brilliant value at £528 delivered.
• BMW owners should make a note that M-Shock make a range of front monoshocks to fit over 20 telelever models. They have lightweight alloy bodies, stepless preload adjustment, 14-clicks of balanced damping adjustment, and are supplied with a 2-year warranty at only £252 delivered.
• You can now buy M-Shocks from our new online shop! Hit the 'BUY M-Shocks ONLINE' button.

• Italian firm Bitubo began making industrial shocks back in 1963, and moved into motorcycle race suspension from 1975, winning world titles and developing their strong racing pedigree within a few years. The company name comes from their legendary racing twinshocks which were connected by two compensating rubber pipes.... Since then they have continually developed their road and race winning products.
• Bitubo shocks are typically Italian, both stylish and well engineered.There's a wide range of applications, but mainly ordered in from Italy so there can be a bit of a lead time....
• There are 3 main groups of monoshocks:     WZE & WZM,     XZE & CZE,     and XXF
• The WZE range is principally for lightweight bikes up to 125cc, eg Aprilia RS125, and a few lighter 250's. They are Nitrogen pressurized, with oil/ gas separating floating piston, and stepless adjustments of both preload and rebound damping. The picture shows a WZF shock, which is a range of only two shocks for Suzuki TL1000R & TL1000S. Unlike the WZE units these shocks have remote reservoirs, allowing both stepless rebound and 12-click compression damping adjustment as well as preload, and are compact enough to replace the original rotary dampers and springs to give a brilliant improvement. Heavy duty option available.
• Prices: WZE for lightweights   from  £329 WZM for Suzuki TL1000S      £498

• The XZE range of shocks is a wide range designed to suit most road bikes. All are Nitrogen pressurized with oil/gas separating floating piston. Steel 45mm body, 14 mm steel rod with low friction surface treatment and billet Ergal heads with CNC machining, stepless preload and 7-click rebound damping adjustment. The XZE01 is the standard shock, while XZE11 adds adjustable length, and XZE31 adds remote hydraulic preload. Some applications benefit from the extra strength & stability of a 16mm rod - this is the CZE01 model (same price).
• Prices: XZE01    £429  XZE11     £459   XZE31     £645

• The XXF range is aimed squarely at the race market. They have all aluminium bodies to minimise weight, and state of the art internals for improving the damping coefficient and increasing the stability at high temperature. A 14mm rod provides steady support, while the piston has been slimmed in diameter to 30mm to reduce the volume of fluid, and hence lower inertial forces, which increses controllability of the shock's movement. In addition, unlike some makes of shock all the adjusters are located near the top of the unit.
• XXF is supplied with the following adjustments: - Low speed compression in 24 clicks - High speed compression in 20 clicks - Rebound in 24 clicks - Hydraulic spring preload range 12mm (in 24 clicks) - XXF31 model - Adjustable length up to 8 mm, easy to adjust with the supplied knob
• ADJUSTMENT VALVES KIT: XXF shock absorbers can be easily and quickly modified by replacing the XD compression valve and XS rebound valve. The supplied set-up is labelled on the shock body. Bitubo Racing department has created specific set-ups for several bikes developed with the world champion teams and their riders, now available to you, the enthusiast, with specific damping coefficients. Complete valve kits in single or double speed are available, with their performance graphs. The shock is fully rebuildable.
• Prices: XXF11   from  £785   XXF31 with hydraulic preload     from £968

• Hyperpro are a Dutch company established by experienced suspension engineers in the early 90’s. For more than 20 years, they have been manufacturing quality suspension products, and are best known for their springs. More progressive than most, Hyperpro springs can transform the everyday performance of most makes and models of motorcycles.
• Their range encompasses progressive and linear fork and shock springs, bespoke made shock absorbers, steering dampers and lowering kits which can take the form of replacement linkages or springs. All products are designed and manufactured in Hyperpro’s own factory in the Netherlands. Their warehouse stocks about 30,000 springs covering around 2500 bike models.
• The benefits of very progressive springs are increased performance and comfort. Smaller bumps are taken more smoothly while larger deflections cause the springs to harden up and so retain control rather than bottoming out. They are also more versatile in coping with varying passenger/load weights on the bike.
• As well as selling their own shocks, Hyperpro have developed a wide range of springs designed to replace the spring on your original shock, as most standard monoshocks have cheaper straight springs, not higher performance progressive ones. Please ask us if you’d like a price on a replacement spring - although we suggest that you only consider this option if your shock is still in good condition, probably with less than 10,000 miles on it.
• Most popular shock in the Hyperpro range is the 460 model. This emulsion shock has 50 clicks of rebound damping adjustment plus stepless preload, a 46mm piston and strong 16mm rod for stability. If Hyperpro purple clashes with your bike colours, black springs are a no-cost option. Please note that where a bike's shock mounting angle is more horizontal than vertical, it is necessary to install a gas separator piston to keep gas and oil apart. These models are designated 466, and are priced higher than the 460 model.
• Higher performance models - the 461 has a separate hose-mounted reservoir and the 463 has a separate piggyback reservoir - are available depending on the bike. Bladder technology is used to separate the oil from the nitrogen gas in these reservoirs, to maintain shock performance under demanding conditions. Adjustment includes 30-click compression damping, with separate high and low speed compression damping on some models. Please ask for details and prices of the shocks Hyperpro list for your bike.
• The best value in Hyperpro's range is the Streetbox. This is a combination of a 460 shock with a pair of Hyperpro’s renowned progressive fork springs, at a good discount to the cost of buying them separately. Please contact us for a price.
• All Hyperpro shocks are built to order taking account of your weight and riding habits, and you can have a non-standard length shock if you need to raise or lower your seat height (within safe limits of course). All Hyperpro products are KBA/GTU/TUV approved. Delivery takes approx 3 weeks.

Nitron are not only one of the world’s leading designers and manufacturers of race suspension (for both bikes and cars) - they are also British! Their products are all developed for racing use, and their road bike shocks use all the same technology and parts as the full race spec units, giving them dependable performance and reliability for year-round road or track use.

The use of high grade aluminium and titanium results in lightweight but strong shocks that are also well protected against corrosion.

• The NTR-R1 is the main road bike shock in the Nitron range. It has 24-click balanced rebound/compression damping adjustment as well as stepless preload, a 40mm piston driven by 14mm rod, and most applications incorporate a length adjuster.
• For maximum adjustability the NTR-R3 shock adds separate 16-click high- and 16-click low-speed compression damping to the R2 spec, ideal for giving track day riders and racers a wide range of options in matching bike characteristics, road conditions and rider preferences.
• The NTR-Race PRO shocks take Nitron's excellent performance to a TT-winning level: By incorporating their class leading 46mm piston and ultra-strong 16mm piston rod, the Race Pro shock demonstrates outstanding levels of performance, damping control and adjustability. Piggyback, pistol or remote reservoir allows quick and simple independent adjustment of rebound and fast and slow compression damping. The fade resistant properties of the large piston, Nitron's unique valving, and use of highest grade materials ensure that the Race Pro is a proven TT and Superbike winner.
• For Dual Sport / Adventure bikes Nitron offer their ADV range. These shocks still come in the R1/R3 spec variations, but with beefed up 46mm diameter pistons and stronger 16mm rods.
• Remote hydraulic preload adjusters are available for most models in the range, but as ever it's an expensive option at £260 incl vat.

• All Nitron shocks are custom built, valved and sprung to suit your weight, any passengers or luggage carried, and riding style. They come with a 2-year warranty and are fully rebuildable and re-valveable.
• If you're not a fan of the factory style turquoise, black springs are a no-cost option.
• Nitron design their shocks to suit individual bikes, and recommend the best reservoir configuration for each bike. As a result, prices vary - ask for a quote for your bike.

• Italian company Matris have been manufacturing seriously good monoshocks, front cartridge kits and steering dampers since the 1980’s. Due probably to the high prices and a lack of much sales effort in the UK there are few of these excellent shocks around so far.


• Designed with high tech computer systems and precision manufactured using top quality materials the internal friction level has been minimised, high temperature stability is improved, and damping adjustment made very precise - the change in damping is noticeable with every click of adjustment.


• The Matris monoshock range is available in 3 models: KD, K and R. All are built to the same exacting standards, very lightweight, CNC machined and hand built not welded. The KD single damping adjustment is for Road use, the K or two way damping adjustment is for Road and Track use and the R or three way damping adjustment is for Road, Track and Race use. The design is based around a 46mm diameter piston with a 16mm diameter piston rod. All have continuously variable preload adjustment with a hydraulic adjuster option. The differences between the models are:


• The KD single adjustment shock is intended principally as a road shock. It uses a single damping adjuster to make it very easy for a road rider to get the right set up for their own personal use. It also has spring preload adjustment and in most cases ride height adjustment. Many are also available with the addition of the Hydraulic Preload Adjuster.


• The K two way adjustable shock is a more sophisticated unit intended for road and track use. It uses two damping control adjustments to independently control rebound and compression or bump damping. Ideal for fast road or track day use.


• The R three way adjustable shock is intended primarily for race and track use with specifications the same as the two way adjustable shock, except with the addition of independently adjustable hi and low speed compression damping. It is ride height adjustable and is fitted with a Hydraulic preload adjuster as standard. All shocks are fully rebuildable and re-valveable.


• With a Matris shock absorber, you can feel a difference with every click of damping adjustment you make and you can see it on a Shock Dyno! This is achieved by the absolute precise engineering of internal components. These shocks are built to order in the italian factory, so delivery can be a little slow. Normally 4 weeks, although they usually shut down for august!

KD from £556

K from £869

R from £1425
