Welcome to Shock Value, a semi-regular series about all things suspension. The entries will range from deep histories to surface-level tutorials. Today, we’re starting with the basics. First, there’s now a glossary of terms on The Radavist site that we will link to any time there’s a jargon-heavy article or product review. But the post you’re reading now is even more basic. It’s a brief summary of how we feel about suspension and why we think it deserves its own regular spotlight. We hope you’re looking forward to it as much as we are.

Shock Value: The Glossary
The first entry in our Shock Value education series is this extensive glossary. We hope it will serve as a way to demystify the jargon in the stories and reviews you’ll read here at The Radavist. But we also think it functions as a standalone educational tool. There are a lot of systems and concepts at work in our suspension. We’re not just here to explain how they affect your ride but also how they function. So, we invite you to take a leisurely scroll through. You may find it will deepen your understanding of what makes your suspension tick and how to make it tick better. Or, simply use your browser’s search function to find the word you’re looking for.
