These are different from motocross in as much as they offer a higher possibility of grip. Suspension systems must work in symbiosis with the driver himself on all types of ground. On a competition level or just a plain ride with friends conditions often vary (mud, dust, slippery rock etc.) so it is fundamental to obtain the very best performance when it comes to grip. A very important factor for any kind of suspension is the materials that are used (anodized outer tubes) for eliminating friction so you can then work with softer springs and adequate hydraulics whilst still keeping into consideration the drivers weight as well as driving skills.
