An adjustable shock assembly is disclosed herein. The adjustable shock assembly includes a damper body having a main chamber with a working fluid therein. An adjustable active valve assembly comprising: a first parallel flow pathway comprising an active valve; and a second parallel flow pathway comprising a firm mode blowoff stack and a firm mode adjuster to adjust a blowoff pressure of the firm mode blowoff stack. A main piston coupled with a piston shaft, and a fluid pathway fluidly coupling the main chamber with the adjustable active valve assembly which is fluidly coupled with a reservoir.

A shock sag value generating assembly is disclosed. The shock includes an upper tube telescopically engaged with a lower tube, and the sag value generating assembly includes a first sag value generating component located relative to one of the upper tube and the lower tube and a second sag value generating component slidably coupled about an outer diameter of one of the upper tube and the lower tube.

The present invention provides a solenoid, a damping force adjustment mechanism, and a damping force adjustable shock absorber capable of securing a thrust force of a mover (a moving core) and also suppressing a vibration at the same time. The solenoid includes a coil, an armature, an anchor, and an actuation pin. The coil generates a magnetic field in reaction to power supply thereto. The armature is at least partially located on an inner peripheral side of the coil, and is provided axially movably. The anchor faces the armature axially. The actuation pin is displaced integrally with the armature. The armature includes a large-diameter portion and a small-diameter portion. In this case, the small-diameter portion is provided on the anchor side.

A damper assembly includes a rod elongated along an axis. The damper assembly includes a body supported by the rod, the body having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. The body and the rod define a passage between the body and the rod, the passage extending from the first surface of the body to the second surface of the body.
