Common questions

Can I adjust the damping and preload myself on this Ohlins STX 46 shock?

Yes, rebound damping is adjustable via a simple dial. The hose-mounted hydraulic preload can also be adjusted using the provided tool, allowing you to tune for weight changes and maintain proper suspension geometry.

Does this Ohlins STX 46 shock come as a single unit or a pair?

This is a single shock absorber. Please verify your specific Softail Slim configuration before ordering to ensure you purchase the correct number of units required for your bike.

What makes the 46mm piston design better than smaller shocks?

A larger 46mm piston provides a greater surface area for damping fluid to act upon, allowing for more precise and consistent damping control, especially during demanding riding conditions, compared to smaller piston designs.
