Nitron R1 with Front Axle Lift – BMW F87 M2 / M2 Competition
Nitron R1 with Front Axle Lift for BMW F87 M2 / M2 Competition combines the motorsport-derived R1 platform with Nitron's hydraulic front lift system. The R1 is developed directly from Nitron's full race suspension programme and shares key components with the R3.
The FAL system raises the front axle by 25 mm at the shock, giving extra clearance for speed bumps, steep driveways and loading ramps. The suspension remains built around the BMW application with model-specific spring rates and damper valving.
