Hipermax S is built around driving comfort in the broadest sense — ride quality alongside the confidence that comes from predictable handling. The dual PVS preload valve system suppresses unnecessary damping force at higher piston speeds, a marked improvement in ride comfort that costs nothing in driving performance. A revised needle jet shape widens the range of damping adjustment across the 30 available steps, and a new bump stop rubber shape cuts body roll while retaining ride comfort in a way conventional hydro bump stops cannot manage.
Low friction internals developed through advanced tribology raise durability and reduce friction, benefiting both ride quality and handling. Optimised internal parts and improved build quality carry a three year warranty.
