With 2016 marking 40 years since Öhlins was founded by Kenth Öhlin, the Swedish suspension manufacturer is celebrating the milestone with a raft of new products, including the racing derived FKR Cartridge kit and the Retro 43 which has been crafted specifically for the custom motorcycle market.
Robert Brinkmark, Öhlins Product and Marketing Manager, explains, “The 40th anniversary is a huge milestone for Öhlins and everyone at the company is incredibly proud of our achievements – both this year and historically. We’ve always led the way with innovative new products, and 2016 has been no different with the launch of the FKR cartridge kit, derived from our many years of racing success, the Retro 43 fork, which is aimed at the growing custom market, the TTX Flow and even new Mountain Bike items. Alongside those we feature on many new motorcycles as OE components, something we are very proud of.”
