A shock absorber includes a cylinder; a piston dividing the cylinder into first and second chambers, the piston being movable within the cylinder in inward and outward directions; a first main channel and a first main non-return valve allowing a first main fluid flow from the second to the first cylinder chamber; a second main channel and a second main non-return valve allowing a second main fluid flow from the first to the second cylinder chamber; a comfort channel allowing an auxiliary fluid flow between the first and second cylinder chambers; and a comfort valve providing an open connection for the auxiliary fluid flow through the comfort channel in a rest position of the comfort valve and closing off the auxiliary fluid flow at increasing pressure difference across the comfort valve at either inward or outward movement to influence an auxiliary fluid flow between first and second piston sides.
