Which component limits suspension travel at full compression?

  • A.The damper, whose piston reaches the end of the cylinder and therefore prevents any further movement of the wheel
  • B.The rebound strap
  • C.The spring itself, which becomes coil bound at full compression and therefore acts as a solid stop at that point
  • D.The bump stop

Answer: D

A rubber or microcellular bump stop takes up the last part of the travel progressively, protecting the damper and the body from a metallic impact. Coil binding a spring would destroy it. Modern bump stops act as a supplementary progressive spring. Naming what changes and what stays the same is the reliable route through questions of this shape. Checking which component actually carries the load settles most questions of this kind at once. Most errors here come from carrying a result across from a neighbouring case where it does not hold.
