THE ADVANTAGE OF COIL SPRING SHOCK WITH THE LIGHTNESS OF AIR.
The primary goal of the STORIA V3 is the easy-fitment on most mountain bike frames; for this reason the shock has seen a complete redesign, and can be purchased in metric or imperial sizing, featuring standard or trunnion mounts.
STORIA V3 adopts the same hydraulic and internals of the ARMA.
Like the previous STORIA model, V3 offers the revolutionary LOK Technology that allows a complete compression separate lock-out system, now totally renewed with a new design, a more progressive opening, and is totally silent.
In order to allow every rider to use a softer spring rate and increase bike traction and handling, EXT engineers have imported from ARMA the hydraulic bottom out system named HBC (Hydraulic Bottom-out Control), capable of developing more than 50% of hydraulic force only at the last part of the stroke, allowing riders to avoid any kind of bottom-out issues.
This technology allows the use of thinner bottom-out bumpers, increasing the amount of useful travel.
STORIA V3 is designed to serve those customers who want maximum performance of a pedal-platform equipped shock, with great support in the last millimeters of bike rear travel, with the great performance of a coilover shock.

THE ULTIMATE REAR SHOCK FOR DOWNHILL WITH THE SAME TECHNOLOGY AS A WRC RALLY CAR.
Like the younger enduro brother, the ARMA V3 downhill shock has seen a lot of refinements from the previous model.
Engineered with downhill focus in mind, shock structure has seen a redesign in order to be more frame friendly, with metric and imperial sizing, and both classic eye to eye and trunnion mounts.
HBC has been enhanced with a wider range of adjustment, in order to prevent bottom-out issues, while allowing riders to use softer spring rates and still have good support.
Like the STORIA V3, this technology allows the use of thinner bottom-out bumpers, increasing the amount of useful travel.
ARMA V3 is designed to serve those riders who want a coil feel with very high bump sensitivity, and still are in need of a strong bottom-out support.
