Koni makes some shocks that are not gas shocks. Why? PDF Print E-mail
There are basically three types of shock absorber designs: mono-tube high pressure gas, twin-tube low pressure gas and twin tube hydraulic (non-gas). Each of these designs has a certain ride and performance characteristics that can enhance the performance of a vehicle and Koni is the only company that makes three designs. Koni ride development engineers evaluate each new vehicle and can decide which shock design would best apply to that vehicle. Some cars respond to mono-tubes, some like gas pressurized and others don't. Most shock companys utilize only one or two of these styles because it is less expensive for manufacturing but they are therefore limited in design capability and function.
