Product information
Bitubo adjustable pressurized cartridge: preload, rebound, compression + 1 liter of oil. Code: Y0162EBH09 for Yamaha MT-09, Yamaha TRACER 9, from 2021 onwards, Yamaha XSR 900 from 2022 onwards.
The EBH pressurized cartridge incorporates a series of innovative systems such as the well-known FPS, EC, LC, and the new overpressure control system OPC (over pressure control). These systems are the result of extensive development experience from the Research and Development department in collaboration with some of the best teams that have participated in the SBK, BSB, IDM, CIV World Championships. All adjustments, spring preload, rebound, and compression, which are distinct in the two cartridges, are located on the top cap, simple and intuitive. The high damping coefficient from very low speed controls the excessive front-end dive from the very first moments of braking.
Complete pressurized cartridge kit EBH09 by Bitubo, a racing product that guarantees competition-level performance. This kit is specifically designed for the Yamaha MT-09 (models from 2021 to 2026) and includes 1 liter of dedicated oil for installation.
Features and Adjustments:
Technology: Gas pressurized system (Nitrogen) with 20 mm pistons and patented Big Piston system that ensures immediate control of oscillations and prevents fluid cavitation.
Adjustments: All adjustments are conveniently accessible from the fork top caps, making setup simple and intuitive.
Spring preload: Adjustable for correct static setup.
Rebound: Controls the return speed of the fork.
Compression: Manages support during dive and braking.
Kit content: Unlike the "WO" (Without Oil) versions, this code includes 1 liter of specific Bitubo oil necessary for optimal installation and operation.
Hydraulic control with FPS system (Bitubo Patent) Ø27mm piston in ergal
Ø10mm pumping rods with anti-friction surface coating
Mechanical stop with polyurethane buffer in NBR
Fork top cap with integrated spring preload adjustment
Independent damping adjustment in Compression and Rebound
Coaxial compensation chamber (Bitubo Patent)
Cartridge body in Ergal with anti-friction surface coating
Separate hydraulic lubrication from sliding lubrication
Pressurization force control system
LC: This product has a high percentage of special light alloys and weight-optimized components, aiming to achieve maximum lightness.
FPS: is an acronym that encompasses the highest expression of effectiveness and rationality of this patented system. This innovative damping system was created to have immediate control of fork oscillations while avoiding any cavitation phenomena in the internal fluid. The system is pressurized with low-pressure gas. The cartridges are asymmetrical: one controls the compression phase, while the other controls the rebound phase. By placing the compensation chambers alternately at both ends, a very high damping coefficient can be achieved from very low speed.
Installation
The EBH09 pressurized cartridge is a "closed" system that replaces the entire original hydraulic componentry of the fork. Installation requires specific skills to ensure correct assembly and personalized setup based on the rider's weight and riding style.
