Öhlins

Öhlins was founded in 1976 by Kenth Öhlin, who began rebuilding motocross shock absorbers in his father's workshop because nothing on the market did what he wanted. Two years later an Öhlins-equipped KTM took the 250cc motocross world title - the first of more than 300 world championships.

Racing technology, road products

Everything Öhlins makes is developed for competition first. TTX twin-tube damping, the electronically controlled CES valve and the carbon MotoGP forks all started as race parts before reaching production cars and bikes. Öhlins produces more than 400,000 shock absorbers, forks and steering dampers each year across its three manufacturing facilities worldwide.

Road & Track, the range we import, brings that technology to street cars: assembled, pre-valved coilovers using Öhlins' DFV valve technology, built to stay comfortable on the road without giving up control on track.
