The patented Viking Berserker series was designed based on the Crusader platform as a response to requests for high performance shocks / struts suitable for street use. The Berserker is available in double adjustable, triple adjustable, and soon to be released quad adjustable. There are various force curves available for compression and rebound based on the vehicle and use of said vehicle. This allows the adjusent range to be tailored to how the vehicle is set-up and how the vehicle will be driven or used for competitive purposes. Since the Berserker series has street use in mind, both the compression and rebound forces will ultimately provide for a blow-off. That does not mean that the curves will necessarily be digressive at lower speeds. While some options will be digressive at lower speeds, others will be linear and some will even have a progressive nature. When comparing to the Warrior series, the Berserker allows for a broader force range curve allowing for strong enough valving to handle higher rate springs, front-end tie down, etc., or softer valving at lower speeds to allow for the tire to remain planted on hot, slick tracks or allow for easy-up weight transfer or rear separation. Further, the Berserker is a stronger design with better sealing characteristics since the Berserker is based off the Crusader platform and shares many premium, upgraded internal components.
Rebound Valving:
The Berserker rebound valving is the same in either a double adjustable or a triple adjustable. The quad adjustable will have different rebound valving options. There are various standard rebound valving offerings depending on the vehicle use and the vehicle specifications.
Compression Valving:
The Berserker compression valving is available in either double adjustable or a triple adjustable. The quad adjustable will have different compression valving options.
There are three standard Berserker double adjustable compression valving options: The "A" valving has a digressive curve and is used for certain drag race or street use applications. "G" has a firmer digressive curve at higher speeds, but has a fixed bleed for softer low shaft speeds. The force curve provides for more traction at low shaft speeds, especially on a hot, slick track that may be slightly rough or for when experiencing surface transitions or curbing. The "G" valving is used in handling applications or for ride comfort while cruising. The "H" valving is a firm, digressive compression curve that is often used on various drag race applications.
