characteristic with the minimum of complication.

In order to obtain an exact record of shock
absorber loadings that give us good riding, and also to assist
us in any further investigations, we are contemplating making
a small indicator to get complete records of the internal
pressures. As the speed of operation is so low, this can
be of a very simple type. Our present maximum pressure
readings hardly tell us enough about the behaviour of the
shock damper.
