The Ohlins STX 36 scooter shock for the front of the Vespa Sprint 125 is built to give more controlled damping and better front-end feel in everyday riding. It’s designed to improve stability and confidence when the load shifts forward, such as during braking and quick direction changes. As with all suspension, correct setup is key to getting the best ride quality and control.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins develops its road-going suspension using the same engineering approach that underpins its racing programs. The aim is consistent damping performance, predictable chassis behaviour and a broader tuning window for different rider weights and riding conditions.

Who this shock is for

Suited to Vespa riders who want a more planted and composed front end than a basic OE-style unit. It’s a practical choice for commuting, urban riding and spirited weekend use where braking stability and steering accuracy matter.

Shock design & features

This is a gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated shock design to help maintain damping consistency as temperatures and workload increase. The STX 36 architecture focuses on controlled oil flow and stable damping behaviour, supporting improved traction and stability at the front wheel.

Tuning controls

Provides external damping adjustment so you can tune feel and response to suit your tyres, roads and riding style. Adjustability allows you to balance comfort against control and keep the front end settled when the pace increases.

Before you install

  • Confirm application and fitment for Vespa Sprint 125 front position before installation.
  • Set sag and damping in small steps after fitting, then re-check after a few rides.
  • If any existing bushings or mounting hardware are worn, replace them to avoid play and noise.

Serviceability/lifecycle

Ohlins shocks are designed to be serviced to restore performance over time. Regular maintenance helps keep damping consistent and extends component life, especially when the scooter is used frequently or in harsh conditions.
