Maxton WR26 Piggyback Twinshocks – Elite 4-Way Adjustable Performance
Take absolute control of your suspension with the Maxton WR26 Twinshocks, an alloy-bodied, piggyback gas twinshock, engineered for riders who refuse to compromise. Built from premium 7075 AND 6082 T6 aircraft-grade alloy to maximize weight savings while maintaining ultimate strength and durability, the WR26 is designed to be the most adjustable piggyback gas twinshock on the market.
4-Way Adjustability
Fine-tune your ride with total precision. The WR26 offers four separate, independent channels of adjustment:
• Rebound Damping: 20 clicks via a hand wheel at the bottom of the shock.
• Compression Damping: 25 clicks via a hand wheel at the top of the shock.
• Effortless Preload Setup: Driven by Maxton’s quick and easy 'Tommy Bar' preload ring system (tool included).
• Adjustable Ride Height: Alter the shock length to tune your bike’s steering geometry for quicker or slower turn-in.
The Maxton Gas-Pressure Advantage
The WR26 features a piggyback, high-pressure gas system, incorporating a floating separating piston between the gas and oil. This design eliminates damping fade under when the shock absorber heats up. This superior control allows you to run a softer spring rate, meaning your suspension tracks the road flawlessly to deliver maximum tyre feedback and unmatched rider feel.
Every component of the WR26 twinshock is anodised to prevent wear, corrosion and optimize oil flow during both high- and low-speed movements, while friction-free internal bearings eliminate "sticktion" and wear.
Championship-Proven Engineering
The WR26 isn’t just for solo bikes. Trusted by racing sidecar world champions and factory sidecar builders, every WR26 set is built to order and custom-tailored. Maxton engineers precisely select spring rates and internal valving to match your exact weight, machine setup, and riding style.
Key Features
• Custom Built-to-Order: Tailored to your specific setup, with replacement extended eyes available later if you need to lengthen the shocks.
• Advanced 26mm Piston: Delivers highly responsive damping control and enhanced rider feel.
• Click Adjusters: Features a wide and exceptionally fine tuning range for both compression and rebound.
• Hard-Anodised Protection: Every individual component is anodised to shield against corrosion and wear.
• Ultra-Lightweight Billet Alloy: Advanced 7075 and 6082 T6 construction drastically reduces unsprung weight, whilst maintaining strength.
Fitment & Compatibility
The versatile WR26 is engineered for premium performance, for both modern and classic twinshock road and race bikes. It is also a popular choice for F2 sidecar race machines, being fitted to outfits holding the lap record at the Isle of Man TT.
