Shocks Shocks Shocks!
If you're in the market for shocks these are the best shocks available for a slingshot. Alpha/JRi shocks are the only shocks specifically designed for the slingshot to date. Three years Steve the engineer at JRi flew out and we designed a shock for the slingshot ground up. We rode the stock shocks pushed them and found the weak points We then developed a shock by taking in the account of the weight of the slingshot and how we wanted a shock to perform and ride. Various springs rates and valving was tested until we got the ride and performance we set out for.
Right now we have three basic setup for for the slingshot. Sport, Grand touring, and Performance clickers. The Clickers have a knob to adjust damping with 55 clicks. Compared to other shocks JRi's have the widest range in adjust-ability. That means every click from 1-55 makes and difference. Competitors shocks run out of range after just a few clicks.
The sport and grand touring shocks are set you can not adjust damping( harder or softer). This is where the clickers come to play for those that want the range of adjust-ability to go soft, med, hard or any setting in between. Lets say you go on a long trip and the road is rough turn the clicker to the minus side and soften up the ride. You get to a nice twisty road and you want to carve it. Turn the clicker to + and harden the valving for less body roll.
MSRP on the clickers are $1895.00 Group buy price is $1499 shipped! US and Canada! Standard spring color is gloss red. If you would like a custom colored spring cost is $100 and takes about a week longer.
