{"product_id":"brompton-rear-shock-absorber","title":"Brompton Rear Shock Absorber","description":"\u003ch2\u003eCobblestones, kerbs, rough tarmac — your Brompton feels every bump. This takes the edge off.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe standard Brompton rear suspension is a simple rubber block. It works, but it doesn't do much. This shock absorber replaces it with a proper spring-based system — a stacked wave spring sandwiched between two aluminium end caps, held together with a bolt through the centre. The result is noticeably better absorption over rough surfaces, without changing how your bike handles or folds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt fits directly into the same position as your stock suspension block — no modifications needed. Remove the old block, slide this in, tighten the bolt. The wave spring compresses under load and springs back, absorbing impacts your rubber block would just transfer straight to you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3-layer wave spring\u003c\/strong\u003e — stacked stainless steel or titanium spring gives progressive, controlled absorption rather than a dead stop\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAluminium alloy end caps\u003c\/strong\u003e — CNC-machined, anodised, light and durable\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo bolt options\u003c\/strong\u003e — stainless steel (130g total) or titanium (123g total).
