Abstract: A valve assembly for a bicycle suspension system includes a housing, a rotary valve disposed within the housing, and a rotational electro mechanical actuator disposed within the housing. The housing is configured to house shock absorber fluid. The rotational electro mechanical actuator is disposed in operable communication with the rotary valve. The housing, the rotary valve and the rotational electro mechanical actuator define a plurality of fluid flow passages internal to the housing. The rotary valve and the rotational electro mechanical actuator are each subject to contact with or immersion in the shock absorber fluid in the housing when present.

Abstract: A spring for a suspension is described. The spring includes: a spring chamber divided into at least a primary portion and a secondary portion, and a fluid flow path coupled with and between the primary portion and the secondary portion. The fluid flow path includes a bypass mechanism, wherein the bypass mechanism is configured for automatically providing resistance within the fluid flow path in response to a compressed condition of the suspension.

Abstract: A vehicle suspension damper for providing a variable damping rate. The vehicle suspension damper comprises a first damping mechanism having a variable first threshold pressure, a second damping mechanism having a second threshold pressure, and a compressible chamber in communication with a damping fluid chamber, wherein the second damping mechanism is responsive to a compression of said compressible chamber.

Abstract: A bicycle includes a frame having a plurality of frame members that includes a first frame member, and a suspension system. The suspension system includes a first portion and a second portion fluidly coupled via hydraulic fluid to the first portion. The first portion is disposed external of the first frame member, and the second portion is disposed internal to the first frame member.
