The Serpent SER500899 13mm internal spacer is an internal damper part made to sit in 13mm shock bodies and alter the internal oil space to refine damping response. Small volume shifts created by the spacer change how oil moves past internal components, influencing overall travel and feel.
Service the shock by emptying oil and disassembling the unit, fit the spacer where appropriate, then rebuild and bleed according to the shock service instructions. While reassembling inspect seals, O-rings and the shaft surface to avoid leaks and preserve consistent performance.
Spacer tuning is best used in conjunction with careful selection of oil weight and spring rates; trial runs with incremental modifications help determine the ideal combination for handling and track conditions.
Keep spare seals and test methodically after each adjustment to verify the spacer's real-world effect on the model.
