I got a nip set of these shocks in a lot does anybody know anything about them? I cant find anything on them. they are really cool you adjust them just by turning them. it changes the pressure inside them. I wish I could find a set for the rear.

They were not near as popular as the piggy back reservoirs that were widely used on Associated shocks in the late 90's and so on. Very cool none the less! 8)

I have never even heard of them but I bought a box of parts at the Vonats and it had them in it. I built them they are a real cool design I am suprised they didnt to better. they have 3 setting that change the shock piston hole with just a click.

Schumachers vari-shock did that too, so do the xray onroad shocks. Pretty cool but you have to be super careful to not strip the system, plus for the hardcore racer nothing beats a well-rounded teflon piston :)
