Abstract

The present invention discloses a dynamically adjustable suspension device including one or more springs having similar or different spring rates, where said one or more springs are arranged in a pre-defined configuration, and a dynamically adjustable damper. The dynamically adjustable damper, includes a rotatable knob coupled to the dynamically adjustable damper to change the damping coefficient dynamically in real-time, means to rotate the knob so as to adjust damping coefficient in real-time while the dynamically adjustable suspension device being used, means to identify compression of the one or more springs by sensing one or more positions of the springs, between a fully elongated state and a fully compressed state in real-time.
