Why Base•1 Performs Better

Every Black Label Base•1 shock is custom-built using Bandit's proprietary Terrain Sensitive Valving (TSV), engineered to absorb small trail chatter while maintaining the control needed for larger impacts and rough terrain.

Combined with an Internal Floating Piston (IFP) design, vehicle-specific valving, and custom spring rates selected for your rider weight, Base•1 delivers smoother ride quality, improved traction, and more predictable handling than factory suspension.

The threaded preload adjustment allows you to fine-tune ride height and spring preload to accommodate accessories, cargo, or rider preference.
