Technical Overview

STOCK XPLOR PDS SHOCK PERFORMANCE ISSUES:

  • Poorly balanced with the XPLOR front suspension

  • Lacks compliance on square-edged obstacles

  • Overactive top-out behavior is reminiscent of previous PDS shock designs, creating a "kick" on rollers and whoops, and exaggerating fork dive

  • Bouncy character exacerbates chassis fore-aft stability

  • Smaller 46mm shock body has reduced fluid volume, making it vulnerable to overheating and fade

OUR SOLUTION

Despite the XPlor PDS shock's limitations, we consider it a solid platform for development. Certainly it is a stronger starting point than the stock XPlor fork. We were able to successfully address each problem area without the need for a major design revision (as was required for the XPlor fork).

  • Designed to be paired with the Kreft XPlor Revalve Control fork

  • Dished main piston creates a solid platform for aggressive riding

  • Reduced high speed compression for square-edge bump compliance

  • Rebound damping curve designed to control top-out motion without causing packing

  • High viscosity-index shock fluid for heat stability
