Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins suspension is developed with a focus on predictable damping behaviour and repeatable tuning. The STX platform is designed to deliver clear feedback and stability without making the bike harsh. For adventure and touring applications, this supports confidence over variable roads and tracks.
