Posted by
onMX Tech Shock Compression Triple Adjuster WP
- High performance WP shock compression adjuster
- Unique design eliminates harsh spike associated with standard compression adjusters
- Creates better pressure balance within shock absorber
- Clickers are more sensitive to adjustments
- Low speed compression adjustment (LSB)
- High speed compression adjustment (MSC)
- Low speed rebound adjustment (LSR)
- Can be used with stock or modified shock valving
- Only available in Gun Metal Grey color now
- A key part of all JBI Suspension Pro Shock builds

The WP MXT Shock Compression Triple
Adjuster allows oil to flow thru it in 3 ways/circuits. The first is a
direct bleed (bypass) that is adjusted by the LSB clicker. With this
you can control how much or little oil can freely flow thru the
adjuster. This bypass is tiny and its largest influence is on the
initial movement and feel of the shock. As pressure continues to build
oil begins to flow thru the next valve circuit, which is a subvalve.
This valve features a few shims covering it and as oil pressure builds
beyond what the bypass valve can handle, these shims begin to flex and
lift off the valve allowing oil to pass. Lastly there is a piston with
shims stacked on it similar to the main shock piston but smaller in
size. The oil flows thru this section of the compression adjuster
during high impacts such as jump landings and can be adjusted via the
MSC clicker. What this means is a shock compresses at different speeds
over different obstacles such as breaking bumps, sand whoops, square
edge bumps, jumps, rocks, roots, etc, and this adjuster provides a more
seamless transition of oil flow thru each circuit of the adjuster making
for a much smoother feeling shock over a larger range of compression
speeds. Unique to the WP version is the ability to control the shock
rebound rod charge via the Low Speed Rebound (LSR) clicker. Oil only
flows thru the Low Speed Rebound circuit on the shock rebound stroke.
This allows for 100% independent tuning of the Low Speed Rebound at the
clicker, instead of the shock shaft which has a crossover effect on
shock compression resistance. The shock shaft rebound adjuster is still
used to change overall rebound damping speed.
