More room for the shock... less damage to the top.
Less harmonics and straighter compression.
Barrels allow for a lighter wire material and less coils versus the linear coil over. Creates a faster and more consistent reaction. Jeremy Queener Eibach Motorsports

It won't hurt anything. I have used them everywhere but lf.Quote:

Matt 49is correct! Just found my Ohlins canister is very close to rubbing the hyperco 16" barrel. It is a piggyback.
