Capricorn C804, C04 & TE04 progressive shocks

Capricorn have introduced new shock bodies and pistons for their C804, C04 and TE04 platforms that create progressive shock action. The inner part of the shock bodies feature machined pockets that are wider at the bottom and narrower at the top and in combination with a special shock piston, a progressive shock action can be obtained that starts on the soft side while becoming harder during the shock compression. Testing has shown that the shocks will assist with stability and provide higher cornering speeds. The shock bodies will become available for the 1/8th scale C804, as well as the 1/10th scale C04 and TE04 platforms.
