Compression and rebound adjustability
Elka Suspensions compression device provides a wide range of highly effective adjustment so you can adapt and fine-tune your shock absorbers for different tracks or riding conditions. You can add or remove hydraulic resistance with the simple turn of a easy-to-access knob. The 40 clicks of our rebound adjuster provides precise adjusment within a very wide range. Elka shock absorbers feature a checkball that isolates the compression adjustment from the rebound adjustment.
Our Elka Standard Travel Sport / Race Series Shocks have become a reference in performance fully adjustable racing shock absorbers. The reliability, wide range of adjustment and quality of Elka shocks has made them very popular among racers and sports riders.

The most significant upgrade available for your ATV
Our Elka Standard Travel Sport / Race Series Shocks are tested by professional riders in actual racing conditions, as well as intermediate riders in real-world situations to ensure that they deliver maximum performance and pleasure. This allows us to address issues unique to real-world driving, such as long-term use and extreme weather conditions.
The Elka Standard Travel Sport / Race Series Shocks are available in long-travel and stock length versions for most sports-utility ATVs. Front shocks are adjustable for compression and rebound or for compression only, while rear shocks come with the both compression and rebound adjustability as standard. With the correct measurements and/or technical drawings, we can also custom design shock absorbers for special geometric configurations.
While each set-up is optimized for the rider's weight, vehicle and riding style, a cross-country configuration still delivers decent performance on the MX track and vice versa. Whatever your type of riding, Elka always has the right set-up for you and your ATV.
