Abstract
A volume adjustable air chamber for a shock assembly is disclosed herein. The adjustable air chamber assembly includes a first air chamber and a second air chamber in fluid communication via a flow path. A check valve is coupled with the flow path, the check valve that allows the second air chamber to be fluidly coupled with or fluidly isolated from the first air chamber, such that the available volume of air for said first air chamber can be modified to provide different damping characteristics.
