How It Works In OEM Showa forks, the top compression valve takes on most of the load, resulting in harshness and inconsistent feel. Our Showa 49mm Fork Setup Kit changes this with a "leaf-style" valving setup that shifts load and control to the midvalve. This allows for a softer main stack with more effective fork hold-up, improving comfort and reducing bottoming out. The '32' Piston Kit’s improved oil flow and shim damping response complement the midvalve system, providing a smooth, controlled feel no matter how rough the track gets bat speed.

Not for Beginners This aggressive fork setup is designed for advanced riders and fast racers who demand precise control, reliable hold-up, and damping suited for high-speed, high-impact racing. Slower or beginner riders may find the setup too firm for their preferences. However, for those chasing podium-level performance, this kit delivers a world-class suspension experience.
