DescriptionThe whole story▼
The Öhlins NIX 30 Cartridge Kit FGK 229 is a precision-engineered fork upgrade developed specifically for the Ducati Panigale V2 955 (2020–2024), bringing the legendary Swedish suspension heritage of Öhlins directly into the heart of your forks. Born from decades of motorsport refinement, this 30 mm cartridge system transforms the character of the stock fork into something genuinely track-worthy — without sacrificing the composed ride quality demanded on challenging roads.
Key Features
- 30 mm cartridge design delivers significantly improved damping consistency and fork stability over the standard internals
- Compression damping and its adjuster are housed in the left fork leg, keeping tuning inputs clean and intuitive
- Rebound damping and its adjuster sit in the right fork leg, separating the two circuits for precise, independent setup
- All adjustments — including spring preload — are accessible directly at the fork cap, so trackside changes take seconds
- Compatible with the Öhlins 08790 spring series, allowing spring rate to be matched to rider weight and riding style
- Installation manual included; Öhlins recommends fitment by an authorised Öhlins Service Centre for optimal results
Design, Finish and Heritage
Öhlins has defined the gold standard in suspension since their first Grand Prix victories in the late 1970s, and the NIX 30 carries that lineage with uncompromising build quality. The cartridge components are machined to tolerances that reflect Öhlins' motorsport origins — every surface, every circuit, every adjuster bearing the hallmark of a brand that supplies factory MotoGP and World Superbike teams. On the Panigale V2 955, a machine already celebrated for its razor-sharp chassis balance, the FGK 229 builds on that foundation rather than fighting it.
Performance on Road and Track
The separation of compression and rebound circuits between fork legs is a design philosophy borrowed directly from Öhlins' top-tier racing cartridge technology. It eliminates the compromise inherent in single-circuit setups and allows the rider to dial in braking stability independently of mid-corner composure. Whether you are carrying maximum corner speed at a circuit or managing varied surfaces on a mountain road, the NIX 30 keeps the front end planted and communicative. The 120 mm stroke ensures the system works through the Panigale's full suspension travel without cavitation or fade.
