Air suspension?

[retread]

Does anybody here know anything about Air Wave suspension for Spyders? I just noticed it while looking for something else, first time I've heard of them. Anybody?

Thanks a lot you two, now I have found something else that is expensive that I want. :2thumbs:

It's about 1/2 the price of the other air-shock option on the market.....nojoke

That is true but the one from kewlmetal does more not sure how to explain it but i know rnet has one and mine is shipping on monday. The shock extends from both ends the other one only raises or lowers the back of the bike to adjust for load.

Gotcha...... no 'low ryding' with this one then.....

I just might order one...

I think it was Crucified that posted in another thread that low ryding actually increases the belt tension drastically, as it stretches the back end out a little more.

How does Rnet like the ride on a daily basis...not the "cool" factor but actual ride quality?

Yup, but its actually the other way around....lowering the bike decreases the belt tension.

Thanks, I am glad you found this thread and were able to clear that up. :thumbup:

:2thumbs: Looks good and about 1/2 the price of other set-ups . Anyone have one or is it you only get what you pay for shock . Very interested but going to wait until someone gets one and does a review .opcorn:opcorn:opcorn:

The Kewlmetal shock has air on both sides of the piston but there is only one rod that extends. In theory it allows you to have different air pressure on both sides of the piston to control rebound and dampening.

I'll let you know after I get some more time on it

Right on as usual.

All the years I've known him, he's NEVER been wrong!

Hey, Lamont, is this good enough to get me that $20 you offered?
