Developed in close collaboration with Italian company Fioroni for 2 years, RB have released a new innovative shock system which makes your shock absorber ultra progressive and with an automatic harder damping which has been the goal of racers for decades. Racers have tried pistons with balls, valves, conical holes, conical pistons, etc. but none ever seemed to work perfectly and also the construction into the small dimensions of an oil shock was also hard to make. So now there is the RB patented ADS (Automatic Damping System).
The special V design sleeve combined with a CNC piston without holes, allows the oil to go up and down with an ultra progressive oil flow. When the piston is at the bottom position the V shape is big and the damping is soft, when the piston goes up into the shock body, the V shape becomes smaller and the damping becomes harder. When the piston is at the upper position (small V size area) the damping is hard and when the piston goes down, the V shape becomes larger and the oil flow is increased which lets the piston return quicker to its bottom position which lets the wheels come in contact with the ground quicker.
Last, the actual big bore shock absorbers are better for damping but become less “reactive” because of the big diameter/big pistons with big oil flow. With ADS, the sleeve reduces the inside diameter and it makes the piston travel become more reactive too.
The Delrin piston is adjusted by hand with the hard coated 7075 T6 sleeve for a low friction to ensure a free movement. The 6 lower escape channels let the oil move when the piston is at the bottom position.

The dampers are one of the key points in a car, but they charge even more important in the cars of all terrain .Therefore, being able to optimize the behavior of the damper can win some valuable tenths in a circuit. Here you can see a picture of the new damper system Realshocks MIP Bypass1 that explained below:
We must differentiate between spring and damper , and damper is usually called the set of both colloquial way. Thespring is responsible for absorbing the force received (through his constant K, can be harder to softer), with so that depending on the spring constant K, with the same force (both extension and compression) will deform to a greater or lesser extent, that is, more or less elongate. the damper (piston part, with hydraulic) is responsible for controlling the variation in the speed of compression and extension of the spring. 's say, for the same compression force eg compress the spring as well, but as a function of the damper, it will take more or less in reach that position. therefore dampers manufacturers constantly work to improve their behavior, for example, making the shock behave differently in compression and rebound (turn your position) or extension. has so far been achieved this asymmetric behavior, but there was still theproblem of high-speed packing or hydraulic lock when the piston is moving very fast, piston holes are not capable of passing sufficient amount of oil, and is produced by both a blockage in the damper, which involves loss of damping capacity (and hence stability, traction, ...) To solve this peroblema just presented the new dampers Realshocks BYpass1 MIP , which claim to solve this problem, using a system octagonal piston and flexible washers (different thicknesses), which act like valves to the passage of oil through the holes of the piston and allow bypass in conditions of high piston speed (quick impact and short). in this case regulates the damper oil to achieve the usual effect of shock. In normal operation the oil passes through the gaps between the piston side and the damper cylinder (not pass through the holes of the piston).When a sudden movement of the stem , in compression, the oil passes through both sides, as octagonal piston holes (doubling the valves) and only passes through the extension side valve blocking the passage through the holes, which will slow, and that asymmetric behavior is achieved, while the bypass get that on impact at high speed, allowing greater oil flow, solving the problem of hydraulic lock. In the next picture you can see how flex compression valves, remaining rigid in rebound damping.
Also in selected valve function is achieved by adjusting the step or bypass holes, making for a very symmetric behavior or very asymmetric shock, via intermediate points. Here valve options available:
