Whats the advantage of remote reservoirs?
• A: Works shocks are pressurized with nitrogen. Standard Works shocks are a gas-emulsion type–that means that the nitrogen is charged into the oil. The remote reservoirs are attached to the shocks through a hose that transfers oil. Inside the reservoir is a polyurethane bladder that separates the nitrogen from the oil. There are two advantages to this. One is that the oil capacity of the shock is increased, which aids in cooling the shock fluid and increases the service life of the oil; and the second is that the compression and rebound valving will stay consistent under the most severe off-road terrain or closed-course track conditions. • Q: I ride pretty hard, but I don’t race. Do you think I would need the reservoirs? • A: It depends. All Works shocks are custom-built to your riding weight, type of terrain and vehicle, so even the non-reservoir shocks will be a vast improvement over the stock shocks. The reservoirs are really a necessity if the Quad is run in long-distance races f
