Falcon Series 3.3 Fast Adjust Piggyback Shock Absorbers offer a wide range of adjustability with their easy to use three-position Fast Adjust Knobs that change damping settings from soft to firm, while the middle setting incorporates an eight-position Micro Adjust Dial for more precise tuning between soft and firm. Falcon Piggyback shocks feature increased capacity for oil and the gas charge compared to monotube shocks, which results in less heat buildup and reduced fade for a significant boost in overall performance. Traditional velocity sensitive shock absorbers react quickly during low speed driving causing excessive “head toss” on rough terrain – or even driveways. Conventional damping then firms up during faster speeds resulting in a jarring ride. Falcon’s proprietary Volume Optimized Damping (VOD) features a digressive linear valve that produces quicker ramp up for increased damping volume, which improves vehicle feedback and control during low-speed driving. VOD also improves the shock absorber’s ability to reduce bottoming out at full compression during faster speeds or over uneven terrain.
