Continuing the 15-year legacy of Double Barrel twin tube technology shocks from Cane Creek, Kitsuma is an incredibly adjustable rear shock designed to be incredibly easy to use. It caters to all varieties of rider styles, body types, and bicycle frame designs without the need for any internal changes. Kitsuma has expanded on the already wide range of adjustment from its predecessor while also reducing the number of external positions. These two advancements combine to create a discernible difference between each adjustment.Tool Free AdjustmentNo need to crane your neck under your bike while fumbling with tiny allen wrenches to make adjustments. DB Kitsuma sports completely tool-free adjusters that are ergonomically designed to be easily accessible and adjustable trail-side – giving riders the power of a pro-tune at their fingertips.Single Rotation Low Speed AdjustmentsGone are the days of counting clicks backward and forward to know where you are and make adjustments. The entire range of DB Kitsuma’s low-speed compression and rebound circuits are controlled within a single rotation, while the high-speed circuits are controlled within two rotations, allowing the rider to easily reference where they are within their adjustment at a glance. The rider has full control and a true sense for how their bike will handle in a variety of real-world scenarios thanks to DB Kitsuma’s large multi-indexed adjusters.Additionally, labels on the adjusters have been simplified to “soft” and “firm” for compression and “slow” and “fast” for rebound to better illustrate how the adjustment effects ride feel, and to give riders confidence to make trail-side adjustments.Finally, DB Kitsuma simplifies the tuning process by increasing the range of adjustment while reducing the number of external positions in each circuit – making each position more meaningful and discernible on the trail. All these improvements add up to a high-performance tuning experience that is incredibly intuitive and accessible.3-Position Climb SwitchDB Kitsuma is equipped with a single lever that switches the shock between three distinct modes, drastically affecting the shock’s feel and character. The new three position climb switch retains Double Barrel’s “Descend” mode it’s patented “CS” mode which provides a stable, yet responsive platform engineered to maximize traction and pedal efficiency while climbing over technical terrain and singletrack. DB Kitsuma also adds a new “Firm” mode. By utilizing a design that closes off the common bleed port, this third position excels at pedaling over long stretches of pavement or gravel roads on your way to the trail.FeaturesWeight: 585g (Air 210) | 471g (Coil 210 without spring),Damper :Double Barrel Technology refined into tool-free adjustment on all four circuits (LSC, HSC, LSR, HSR) ,Adjustment Range: Low Speed - 11 positions, fully indexed, single rotation.

To mark our expansion into progressive springs, we are proud to announce the addition of our popular DBcoil IL rear shock in an all-black finish.The all-black DBcoil IL is available in select sizes and features a gloss black damper tube in place of the gold damper tube. The shock is otherwise identical to the critically-acclaimed, twin-tube inline coil – packing all of the function of a piggyback shock into a lighter and slimmer package.For years riders have had to sacrifice carrying the weight of a coil shock in order to get the performance and consistency they desired. The DBcoil is the first ever twin-tube inline shock that packs in all of the function of a piggyback coil shock in a lighter and sleeker package. Equipped with a VALT® lightweight spring, Climb Switch technology, 4-way adjustability and unparalleled Double Barrel performance, the DBcoil dominates aggressive descents with superior small bump compliance, heat dissipation and linear spring action.FeaturesWeight: Damper only, 285g (weight varies by size),Damping: Twin-tube independent compression and rebound in two high-speed and four-low speed damping circuits,Adjustments: 4-way independent adjustment;,High speed compression,Low speed compression,High speed rebound,Low speed rebound,Climb switch on/off.Spring: VALT® Lightweight spring or VALT® Progressive spring,Finish: Anodized and laser-etched,Mounting Interface: High performance low friction bushing 1/2" universal axle.Pricing is for damper only. Hardware and spring supplied separately.Note - DB Coil IL shocks are NOT compatible with any Specialized Stumpjumper, Levo, Levo SL from 2017 onwards.

Introducing the DBAIR , an all new twin-tube inline shock with superior performance and reliability. The first shock to feature Cane Creek’s LinEair Spring, the DBAIR is the best of both worlds, an air shock that feels more supple, linear and seamlessly supportive throughout its travel.When developing the DBAIR , Cane Creek's engineering team brought forth great advancements in their design and manufacturing processes, all devised to make DB shocks more robust compared to the previous generations. The fully loaded functions of the DBAIR far outstrips other inline shocks and now offers even greater performance and reliability to unleash the full potential of trail and enduro bikes.The DBAIR IL is the first shock to feature Cane Creek’s LinEair Spring. Requiring a lower force to activate, the LinEair Spring provides the consistent feel of a coil shock from the initial stroke, full support during mid stroke and the added bonus of a progressive air spring curve when deep in the travel. The result is the best of both worlds, an air shock that feels more supple, linear and seamlessly supportive throughout its travel.FeaturesWeight: 335g (weight varies by size)Damping: Twin-tube independent compression and reboundAir Spring: LinEair Air SpringAdjustments: 4-way independent adjustment;High speed compression,Low speed compression,High speed rebound,Low speed rebound,Climb Switch on/off.Finish: Anodised and laser-etchedMounting Interface: High performance low friction IGUS bushing 1/2" Universal AxleNote - Pricing is for damper only.

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.
