Claude Foster, founder of Gabriel the company who invented the first shock absorber, which was called the snubber in 1907. In 1918 the first hydraulic shock absorber was introduced and in 1956 the first adjustable shock absorber as well. In 1967 the first gas shock absorber came from Gabriel and from that point many other makers began copying and expanding on the initial work of the people at Gabriel.

The most simple shock absorber design has it sit between the arm that holds the wheel and area under the seat on the frame. As the rear tire hits a bump, the shock absorber is "sandwiched" between the two. The shock absorber itself isn't too different from any other shock absorber.
