Nitron R1 FastRoad 2-way coilover suspension
The Nitron R1 FastRoad is a performance-oriented coilover suspension for sporty road vehicles and occasional track day use. The specially tuned FastRoad variant combines precise handling and direct feedback with the necessary residual comfort for regular use on public roads.
The suspension is based on the proven Nitron racing suspension technology in motorsport and incorporates essential components of the Nitron R3 system. This provides the R1 FastRoad with high damping quality, reliable performance, and an attractive price-performance ratio.
FastRoad tuning for road and track days
This version is explicitly the Nitron FastRoad variant. Spring rates and damper characteristics are tuned with a focus on sporty road use.
Compared to a pure track tuning, the FastRoad version offers a more balanced combination of driving precision, traction, and residual comfort. At the same time, there are sufficient reserves for fast country road driving and occasional use on the racetrack.
Combined 2-way damping adjustment
In the Nitron R1 FastRoad, rebound and compression are adjusted via a common adjuster. This combined 2-way adjustment allows for quick and straightforward tuning of the suspension without needing to adjust both damping directions separately.
The widely usable adjustment range allows for the suspension characteristics to be designed more comfortably or significantly sportier, depending on road conditions, tires, and intended use.
Constant performance under high load
The dampers are designed for consistent performance even at high temperatures. This keeps the driving behavior predictable even under intense use, and the damping effect decreases less significantly during longer track day sessions.
Friction-optimized components improve the response behavior. Irregularities are processed in a controlled manner, while steering precision, feedback, and vehicle control are noticeably improved.
Compact construction without external expansion tank
The Nitron R1 FastRoad operates without an external expansion tank. This results in a compact and robust construction that can be easily integrated into the vehicle while still offering high thermal load capacity.
Weight-optimized components reduce mass without compromising the structural stability and durability of the suspension.
High-quality and corrosion-resistant materials
Each Nitron R1 suspension is handcrafted and individually tailored for the specific vehicle. High-quality titanium components and hard-anodized parts provide high wear and corrosion resistance.
Thus, the R1 FastRoad is suitable not only for sporty driving and track days but also for changing weather conditions and regular road use.
Individually manufactured for the vehicle
Spring rates and damper characteristics are selected to match the respective vehicle and the FastRoad application. This can take into account vehicle weight, tire selection, and existing modifications, among other factors.
The result is a balanced setup with direct handling, improved vehicle control, and everyday usability suitable for road use.

Important ordering note
This product is the FastRoad version. It is intended for customers who primarily drive their vehicle sportily on the road while also wanting the option for occasional track day use.
Since each Nitron R1 is individually manufactured, the exact vehicle model and any existing vehicle modifications must be specified when ordering. Changes to vehicle weight, tires, or aerodynamics can be taken into account when selecting the appropriate spring and damper tuning.
Important installation and tuning note
Installation must be carried out by a qualified specialist. After installation, the vehicle height and axle geometry must be properly adjusted. For optimal vehicle balance, we additionally recommend an individual wheel load adjustment.
The Nitron R1 FastRoad is the ideal choice for drivers who desire a more precise and sportier driving behavior without sacrificing the everyday usability required for regular road use.
