In extension or rebound, the damper employs a unique deflective disc valving system for an infinite variation of the damping characteristic which tunes the ride characteristics of any given bike or car, together with the exclusive TCDS device which reduces the effect of temperature.

In compression, the design uses a valving system located op top of the piston in combination with an adjustable valving in the external reservoir, also containing a gas chamber to pressurize the system.

These design features are extremely important for a vehicle's ride characteristics as it is the way the damping characteristic is achieved which determines how well a vehicle rides and handles under real world conditions.

The Aragosta system employs smooth non-preloaded multi-stage valving systems in both rebound and compression, is gas-pressurized for fade-free performance, and is adjustable in both rebound and compression without removing the damping units from the car.

Aragosta shock absorbers offer better traction, superior ride and handling, better bump absorption and an easily adjustable damping system.

Aragosta shock absorbers are available in the following designs:

  • Double externally-adjustable with remote reservoir
  • Single externally-adujstable
  • Coilover, non-coilover
  • Double externally-adjustable Mc Pherson struts with remote reservoir
  • Single externally-adjustable Mc Pherson struts without reservoir
  • Motorcycle dampers with or without remote reservoir
  • Kartcross dampers with or without remote reservoir
  • Rallycross dampers with or without remote reservoir
  • Touring car dampers with or without remote reservoir
  • Saloon car dampers with or without remote reservoir
  • 4X4 dampers with or without remote reservoir
