" Manufactured with materials used only in the racing world so far , the new IMOLA racing suspension is conceived for riders who hit the track with the aim of beating the clock ." Construction of the body is in Ergal 7075 ( hard and lightweight zinc-aluminium alloy ) with a hard anodised and lapped internal cylinder , nitrile seals ( NBR ) and a powerful 35 mm main piston . The 14 mm through-shaft rod is made from diamondlike coated ( DLC ) Hyperlox treatment with a surface roughness below Ra 0.06 and hardness greater than HV 9000 . The internal system is low-pressure oil expansion compensation with minimum weightoptimised chrome silicon steel springs .
MUPO uses an SAE 2.5W synthetic oil , and as with all the products in the MUPO catalogue , the IMOLA is completely rebuildable and backed by a two-year warranty , that can be extended up to six years by servicing the suspension periodically per the operation and maintenance booklet .
