Elka's rear dual rate shock absorber is available in only a remote reservoir and It comes with compression and rebound adjustments. One of the key features of the Elka shocks is: The self-sagging device (SSD), which allows you to have the maximum traction / stability at the beginning of the stroke while ensuring excellent impact resistance at the end. This feature lowers the height - and therefore the center of gravity on the atv. This results in improved cornering characteristics and better weight distribution.

Elka's also feature a, "Dune Edition" style shock which takes on a little different approach than the SSD series. It provides you with more low-speed compression resistance, which eliminates excessive diving and body roll in sharp corners when carving the dune prevents bottoming out on G-outs during transitions between dunes and while jumping. The valving provides softer damping in high-speed compression so that the suspension is more active over choppy terrain and sand grooves, making the ride more enjoyable.

Every Elka shock absorber is custom-tuned to the specifications of the rider such as: weight , vehicle use (cross country, motocross, tt, recreational) skill level (Beginner, Intermediate, Expert) and dimension of a arms being used (Lonestar +2 or +3's, Alba +2, etc)

*Shocks that need to be special ordered will take 1-2 weeks, possibly longer due to Elkas work load at the time.
