I have seen some discussion on this forum regarding loss of suspension travel when reducing ride height on certain coilover sets. I believe some coilover sets are designed to prevent this by threading the whole damper body allowing ride height to be adjusted via the position of the damper in the mounting bracket (similar to the Ohlins Road & Track system).

1. Which coilover sets don't reduce suspension travel when lowering ride height?

2. How much does this matter?
