Marka Racing Side Circle Ride & Droop Height Gauge

Italy’s Marka Racing has released two new set-up tools, the Side Circle Ride & Droop Height Gauge. As a combination the tools allow the measurement of ride height and droop with the Ride Height Side Circle also available separately. The idea originated years ago from the engineer Ivo Cavuoto that, with the help of the team, finally sees realised his project. This tool, being two faced, is one of a kind because it can be used on both sides. This way is possible to get a more accurate measurement of the height from the ground with step of 0.1mm. The tool extensively can measure from 2.9mm to 6.4mm. Adding the second part of the tool that raises the Ride Height Gauge by 10mm is possible to measure the Droop, and the tool becomes a Droop Height Gauge. In the second part of the tool there is a hole that allows the Awesomatix differential’s place for its upkeep. The tool has being produced by CNC, anodised with the colour black and silver borders.
