SWITCHBLADE PASSES BIG SUSPENSION DROP TEST! – December 17, 2020


We completed drop testing our new rear suspension on Dec 4 without any failure, but when we reviewed the film, we saw that the distance the suspension traveled would allow the vehicle to hit bottom on a very hard landing. We contacted King Shocks and got them to express mail a new set of shock internals to provide more damping (resistance) for the shocks.
The shocks were reassembled and today we tested the rear suspension assembly again. We passed the drop test sequence, and this 5-second slow-motion video captures the final test. Well done to the engineering and fabrication team!
