At R16V, we are passionate about riding—whether it’s competing at the highest level or enjoying a leisurely Sunday drive with friends. We take pride in crafting high-quality suspension products tailored to meet diverse needs.
While our roots are firmly planted in the two-wheel market, we have successfully expanded our expertise in recent years to include four-wheel vehicles and beyond.
Located just 40 minutes outside Barcelona, we collaborate closely with leading manufacturers worldwide. Our mission is to deliver premium, cost-effective suspension solutions that meet our customers’ expectations.
Top quality parts, majority of which are produced internally, from raw material to the vehicle controlling every stage of the production.
Valveless shock absorbers in order to avoid any possible leaks.
Wide range of products, from the everyday bike, to the top level competition level, but always with the highest quality standards.
Our products are 100% personalised, we believe every client is unique and so has to be their product.
Upright or inverted, whichever is more convenient for your bike.
From tube to the bike, most of the parts are machined in house with our last generation CNC machines.
We only work with the best suppliers that are trusted both by manufacturers and the riders.
Continually innovating in order to keep up with the constant evolution of the mobility sector, as well as the challenges that the future brings.

All of our shock absorbers are pressurized monotube designs, available in a variety of configurations, including:
Our shock absorbers cover a wide range of dimensions. Additionally, we provide inverted struts for off-road vehicles, designed to withstand side loads and accommodate high wheel travel. Our products are used across a variety of vehicle types, including on-road and off-road motorcycles, on-road and off-road cars, as well as kart cross and buggy raid vehicles.
We specialize in non-pressurized, bitube-type front forks. Our range includes:
We manufacture forks for a broad spectrum of applications, from trial to enduro bikes, as well as on-road motorcycles. Our forks are available in both conventional and inverted designs, with chromed fork tubes ranging from 39mm to 43mm in diameter. All of our front forks are equipped with progressive hydraulic bump stops.
We place a strong emphasis on achieving high concentricity, minimizing friction, and ensuring smooth operation in all of our fork designs.
We are constantly researching and investing in R&D in order to meet our clients necessities. If you have an Idea please contact us, we will go above an beyond to make it happen!
R16V, initially OLLÉ AMORTIDORS, was founded in 1995 in a garage in a little town next to Barcelona called Collbató as a company dedicated to the repair, modification and preparation of all types of rear suspensions. Since his days of a professional Trial rider, Pere Ollé, the founder, has been involved with the competition world hence why most of his clients from that time came from that world, both professionals and amateurs.
It was not long until manufacturers of small series of all types of motor vehicles proposed to mount an OLLÉ brand shock absorber. It is from this moment that OLLÉ AMORTIDORS focused on the production of rear shock absorbers with its own identity mark. Productive growth implied a technological and logistical need that ended up in the transfer to Igualada in 2002 and the rebirth of R16V.
2012 marked a landmark in the history of the brand, in this year we started manufacturing front suspensions, commonly referred to as forks. To fill a void in the market, we started what turned out to be a very challenging, but equally rewarding process that has taken us to the point where we are today; a company capable to fulfil any suspension needs.
AT R16V, QUALITY IS OUR TOP PRIORITY.
In an industry where it’s easy to be distracted by superficial trends, we remain grounded in the belief that quality should define our brand.
We focus on delivering the best products and services that we can achieve, ensuring that quality is at the core of everything we do.
Specializing in personalized products, we collaborate closely with our clients to meet the highest standards of quality.
We are proud to be ISO 9001:2015 certified, and we are committed to continuously improving our processes to achieve the best possible
outcomes for our clients and customers.
