Construction & Design

Bilstein’s B6 4600 Rear Shock features a robust monotube design that separates the gas and hydraulic fluid chambers, preventing aeration and ensuring consistent damping under all conditions.

The shock absorber’s digressive piston is velocity sensitive, meaning it adjusts damping force based on the speed of suspension movement, providing a smooth ride over small bumps while firming up during aggressive maneuvers.
