Construction & Design:
The ADX M2.0 features a robust monotube design crafted from impact-extruded CNC machined T6061-T6 aluminum, a material known for its strength, lightweight properties, and excellent heat dissipation. This aluminum body runs cooler than traditional steel shocks, reducing the risk of overheating during demanding off-road use. The clear anodized finish not only protects against corrosion but also gives the shock a sleek, polished appearance.
Inside, the shock utilizes a high-pressure nitrogen gas charge separated from the oil by an Internal Floating Piston (IFP). This design prevents aeration and cavitation, ensuring consistent damping performance without fade. The large bore size and Teflon-banded piston further contribute to a smooth, responsive ride by minimizing friction and enhancing piston movement.
Performance & Sound
Engineered for both high-speed off-road performance and low-speed crawling, the ADX M2.0 delivers precise control and improved handling stability. Its advanced valving system quickly reacts to terrain changes, reducing unwanted oscillations and improving tire contact with the ground. This results in a more controlled, comfortable ride with less body roll and enhanced traction. The shock’s smooth operation also minimizes noise and harshness, contributing to a quieter driving experience on and off the road.
