Bitubo Pressurized Cartridge, 3-way adjust: Preload/Rebound/Compression - Without Springs And Oil
The kit includes the cartridge. To be purchased separately: springs, oil, and tools for installation. This allows for the fork performance to be customised to your specification.
The pressurised EBH cartridge contains a series of innovative systems such as the already known FPS (Full Pressure System), EC (Easy Changer), LC (Light Components) and the new Over Pressure Control system (OPC).
These systems are the result of a long experience of development by the Bitubo R&D department in collaboration with some of the best Teams that participated in the World SBK, BSB, IDM, CIV.
On the top cap there are all the adjustments. Spring preload, rebound damping in one cartridge and compression damping in the other; simple and intuitive.
A high damping coefficient at very low speed eliminates excessive fork dive on initial application of the brakes.
Technical features:
- Hydraulic control with FPS system (Bitubo Patent)
- 27mm Ergal piston
- 10mm pumping rod with anti-friction surface coating
- Mechanical bottom-out with polyurethane buffer in NBR
- Upper fork cap with integrated spring preload adjustment
- Independent damping adjustment in compression and extension
- Coaxial Compensation Chamber (Bitubo Patent)
- Ergal cartridge body with anti-friction surface coating
- Hydraulic lubrication separated from sliding lubrication
- Pressurisetion force control system
LC: This product has a high percentage of special light alloys and details optimised in weight, with the aim of achieving the maximum lightness possible.
FPS: Full Pressure System exhibits the highest efficiency and practicality of this patented system. This innovative damping system provides immediate damping, while avoiding any cavitations of the internal fluid. The system is gas pressurised at low pressure. The cartridges are asymmetric: one controls compression, the other controls rebound. With two alternate chambers at both ends, it is possible to create high damping force even at very low speed.Thanks to the possibilities offered by FPS, the adjustments available on the Bitubo EBH allow a wider range of damping curves compared to a standard hydraulic fork, especially at very low speeds.
EC: Easy Changer is a quick change system for fast replacement of the spring with a free key and a new exclusive cartridge dismantling system. EC does not require the fork to be removed, making bike set up and modification much easier.
Possible Accessories:
- Fork leg adjustment cover
- Bitubo KITS fork seals are recommended, and are available for most popular 600-1000cc bikes on the market.

TW Suspension Tech are the UK's Leading Bitubo Specialists and Service Centre.
Bitubo Race Suspension are one of the leading manufacturers of high performance race suspension components in Europe. Founded in 1963 by Scipione Mardollo, Bitubo immediately established itself as a dynamic company on anything related to the control of vibrations of any type, creating cutting-edge, innovative damping systems. Bitubo extended its knowledge to applications such as artificial limbs, seismic dampers, damping systems for oceanic platforms, including vibration dampers for naval engines.
The quality and performance of their fork cartridge kits and race shocks is amongst the best. Since 1975, Bitubo has imposed itself at the forefront of the motorcycle market with the innovation of a famous pair of shock absorbers connected by two compensating rubber pipes – hence the name “Bitubo” – that were immediately adopted and raced by the greatest Champions
Bitubo have a large range of options available, not only for race, but also for road applications.
