The Ohlins STX 46 Supersport rear shock for the Bimota DB5 is built around race-derived damping control for consistent feel and traction. It uses a gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated design to help maintain damping stability as conditions change. Designed as a direct-fit rear mono shock, it provides a clear adjustment range for riders who want to fine-tune chassis balance.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

STX 46 Supersport is engineered for precise damping response and predictable behaviour through braking, turn-in and drive. The focus is controlled support and feedback rather than comfort-biased softness, making it well suited to sporty road riding and track use on the DB5.

Who this shock is for

  • Riders wanting a higher level of damping control and tyre contact from the rear end
  • Owners setting up their DB5 for track days or focused fast-road riding
  • Those who prefer a suspension setup that can be tuned to suit riding style and conditions

Shock design & features

  • Gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated architecture for stable damping performance
  • STX 46 Supersport platform with race-inspired internal design intent
  • Rear mono shock configuration to suit the Bimota DB5 fitment

Tuning controls

Before you install

  • Confirm clearance and mounting hardware condition during removal and refit
