Project 85

MX-Tech has been developing new suspension solutions for smaller dirt bikes for quite some time now. The suspension parts must be designed and built to fit within the factory parameters. The components are built to the same top teir as what is already proven on the big bikes. Real world testing is now happening with select riders and so far things are great. Here is a test from Motocross Action (MXA: 85 SX National Shock)

MXA, "We love the MXT National shock! There's a saying in the pits: "Suspension is everything." When it comes to aftermarket pro-level suspension for all makes and models, MX-Tech has you covered."

Available now:

Austrian bikes - National Shock (taking orders)

Coming soon:

Austrian bikes - Complete Fork (waiting on a few final production parts - taking orders)

Mystery OEM - Full Suspension (prototypes made)

YZ 85 - Full Suspension (in development with 3D models printed)

Ensure your son or daughter has the best equipment as they begin going faster! Jeremy's daughters both ride and race and he personally wants safety to be central to their journey. Suspension has everything to do with bike control and how well it can react in various conditions. If you are ready, reach out to us and learn more about 85cc bike suspension.

MXA, "For kids chasing podiums–or just looking for more control, confidence and comfort– it's a worthy upgrade. It's not cheap, but the performance boost is undeniable."

The history of MX-Tech and 85s was once strong and vibrant, until we stepped away to focus on building complete suspension solutions for all of the big bikes. Below, Chase Sexton earns his only 85 Amateur National title with MX-Tech Suspension.

You may also recognize the deisgn of the two way compression adjusters that have been featured on many National shocks is similar to that of the Cobra OEM compression adjuster. That is because on the industry side of things, Jeremy has been able to work with bike manufacturers and suspension tuners offering his knowledge and expertise relating to suspension building.
