The performance of your shock is directly related to the quality of your spring. VALT® is a lightweight coil spring that offers a significant weight reduction over standard steel springs. Designed to be as light as possible without sacrificing action or durability, the high quality steel in VALT® allows for less material to be used in the coils. Riders can enjoy the performance benefit and consistency without the weight penalty.. The large inner diameter of the VALT® means it will fit Cane Creek shocks and most other shock options on the market.
Climbing has evolved. The DBair CS takes the DBair the world has come to love and adds a selectable climbing mode to specifically address the demands of ascending on the bike. However CS is not your conventional pedal-platform as it adjusts both Low Speed Compression (LSC) and Low Speed Rebound (LSR). By selectively tuning both compression and extension phases when climbing, the shock maintains better traction and control while enhancing pedaling efficiency through the shock's entire travel. Weight: 509g (weight varies by size) , Finish: Anodized and laser-etched,Damping: Twin-tube independent compression and rebound.Adjustments4-way independent adjustment : Air spring rate,High speed compression,Low speed compression,High speed rebound,Low speed rebound.Mounting Interface: Norglide® bushing 1/2" Universal Axle,Air Volume: The DBair CS is available with a standard air can or XV (Extra Volume) air can. ,The XV can offers a higher air volume and is perfectly suited to bikes with a significantly progressive leverage ratio, such as Intense and Santa Cruz. These bikes require a more linear air spring. The less progressive air spring allows the rider to ride with more High Speed Compression while still achieving full travel. ,XV cans are also available separately for retro fitting on existing DBair dampers. .Note - Pricing is for damper only. Hardware supplied separately.
