Fork Cartridge Rod Parts

Motorbike front forks aren't just the two tubes you see on the outside - they often feature a separate internal cartridge that does the real work. See our closed vs open chamber forks article for more info. The shaft that slides inside the middle of this cartridge, with the reb adjuster assembly connected to the bottom and damping piston parts attached to the top, is called the fork cartridge rod.

Function, service and upgrade uses for fork cartridge rods

  • Creates rebound damping in traditional oil/spring fork legs
  • Clickers press on the inner pushrod to alter fluid flow through piston and shim stacks
  • Sold as individual service parts or complete OEM replacement assemblies
  • Enables revalving and bespoke damping via performance kits and shim stacks

Learn how the clickers affect damping in our damping adjusters article. To improve cartridge damping try a performance revalving kit, or build your own shim stack with our valving shims.

Recommended Pairings

Consider matching cartridge rod work with Suspension Tools for accurate setup and servicing.
