- Why would I need to replace my Promoto shock body? — Over time and through normal use, shock bodies can become damaged from crashes, impacts with track obstacles or worn from repeated compression cycles. A replacement shock body restores your suspension to full functionality and helps maintain the responsive handling characteristics your Promoto-MX or Promoto-SM motorcycle is designed to deliver.
- Is this a genuine Losi part? — Yes, this is an official Losi OEM spare part manufactured to factory specifications, not an aftermarket alternative. Using genuine Losi components ensures compatibility, fitment and performance that matches your original equipment.
- What does hard anodized mean? — Hard anodizing is an advanced surface treatment process that creates a thick, protective oxide layer on the aluminium. This coating dramatically increases corrosion resistance, wear resistance and surface hardness compared to standard anodizing, making the shock body far more durable and longer-lasting through repeated riding and maintenance cycles.
- How long is the 53.6mm specification? — The 53.6mm measurement refers to the length of the shock body itself. This precise dimension is critical for maintaining the correct suspension geometry and ride height on your Promoto-MX or Promoto-SM, ensuring the motorcycle handles as the designers intended.
