The two-wheeler shock suspension consists of a dual shock absorber system linked to the rear and back frame of a motorcycle, aimed at mitigating road bumps. These absorbers serve to dampen and absorb the compression and rebound of springs and suspension, managing excessive spring action to ensure smoother riding.
Different types of two-wheeler shock absorbers include metal springs, hydraulic dashpots, pneumatic cylinders, self-compensating hydraulics, rubber buffers, and collapsing safety shock absorbers. Metal springs, crafted from iron or steel through processes such as cold drawing or heat treating, store mechanical energy when compressed. Various technologies, such as mono suspension and dual suspension, are employed in these shock absorbers. They are distributed through sales channels such as original equipment manufacturers (OEM) and the aftermarket.

This two-wheeler shock absorber market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The two-wheeler shock absorber market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.17 billion in 2023 to $3.34 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.1%. During the historic period, growth can be attributed to several factors, including an increase in disposable income among consumers, amplified government funding aimed at enhancing vehicle safety measures, a surge in demand for motorcycles, and a rise in the number of road accidents involving two-wheelers.
The two-wheeler shock absorber market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.06 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.1%. Forecasted growth stems from more women riders, population increase, and urbanization. Trends include adjustable mono suspension, advanced dual suspension, hydraulic tech in suspensions, innovative products for improved performance and enhanced adjustability.
The anticipated surge in the demand for motorcycles is poised to drive the growth of the two-wheeler shock absorber market. Motorcycles, representing two-wheel vehicles primarily used for travel and personal transport, rely on two-wheeler shock absorbers to control suspension movement, ensuring a smoother ride by mitigating vibrations and bumps. This increased demand for motorcycles, as exemplified by a 21.8% growth in total motorcycle sales in the United States in 2021, as reported by RevZilla, a US-based online motorcycle gear retailer and motorsport company, underscores the heightened need for the two-wheeler shock absorber market. Furthermore, Zippia, a US-based career expert providing job recruitment services, reported a notable increase in US bicycle sales to 52 million in 2022, reflecting a substantial 57% rise during the period of 2020-2021. Consequently, the growing demand for motorcycles serves as a significant catalyst for the expansion of the two-wheeler shock absorber market.
Government initiatives aimed at enhancing vehicle safety have also played a pivotal role in propelling the growth of the two-wheeler shock absorber market. Increased government funding has facilitated the production of advanced two-wheelers with improved safety features, consequently boosting the demand for two-wheeler shock absorbers. A case in point is the government of Canada, which, in August 2021, announced the selection of 29 new projects to receive funding from the Enhanced Road Safety Transfer Payment Program. This program, allocating $12.5 million, supports projects across Canada aimed at improving vehicle safety and reducing collision risks. The funded initiatives include tools to mitigate drug-impaired driving, enhance cyclist safety, deploy new connected and automated vehicle sensors, and develop tools to reduce distracted driving and speeding. Thus, the surge in government funding dedicated to enhancing vehicle safety has significantly contributed to the growth of the two-wheeler shock absorber market.
The two-wheeler shock absorber market is experiencing a significant trend with a focus on technological innovations, as major companies strive to introduce cutting-edge products to maintain their market positions. A notable instance is Ohlins Racing AB (Ohlins), a Sweden-based automotive industry company, which, in June 2022, unveiled the TTX22m.2 shock. This product represents an enhanced second iteration of the original TTX22m and features the TTX technology, providing superior bottom-out performance, improved fitting, and easier stroke adjustment. Specifically designed for trail and downhill applications, the TTX22m.2 incorporates a new bump rubber and cup combination, acting as a secondary spring to efficiently load and release energy. This innovative design ensures quick and smooth rider repositioning after experiencing severe compression.
Companies in the two-wheeler shock absorber market are strategically focusing on the development of dual-suspension shock absorbers, augmenting their product portfolios. Dual suspension shock absorbers, utilized in motorcycles and other two-wheeled vehicles, offer cost-effectiveness and ease of manufacturing and maintenance. Touratech, a Germany-based company specializing in adventure bikes and rider equipment, exemplifies this trend. In January 2022, Touratech introduced the E1 series of adventure suspension, encompassing mono shocks, twin shocks, and replacement spring sets for both forks and original shock absorbers. The step-less progressively wound springs in the E1 adventure series combine a sensitive response with high puncture resistance. The foundational components are milled from solid material, and the damper rod, constructed of 16mm thick chrome-molybdenum steel, is generously dimensioned. This strategic emphasis on dual-suspension shock absorbers reflects a commitment to advancing technology within the two-wheeler shock absorber market.
In November 2021, Arnott Air Suspension Products, a US-based aftermarket automotive air suspension company, acquired JRi Shocks for an undisclosed sum. This strategic acquisition aligns with Arnott's objective to broaden its air suspension portfolio within the SEMA performance market, providing top-notch aftermarket replacement air suspension. JRi Shocks, a US-based suspension manufacturer, specializes in crafting high-performance precision shock absorbers for motorcycles, cars, trucks, and jeeps.
