Cane Creek DB Tigon Air-Charged Coil Rear Shock
Cane Creek DB Tigon Air-Charged Coil Rear Shock Item # 1908706

Description
Tigon is an entirely evolutionary DB Twin Tube shock that combines the sensitivity of a coil shock with the tunable support of an air spring to fuel your most creative and playful riding yet.
Tigon tracks the ground and grips like a coil shock, but thanks to Cane Creek's new patent-pending RAMP Tube Technology it also offers the mid-stroke and bottom out support that is often required from an air shock. Both of these benefits are now delivered in an entirely new layout that better withstands side-loading and buckling forces that can harm traditional coil shocks.
Want sensitivity and grip? Tigon delivers. Want more support? Just add air!
Tigon's RAMP Tube is a small air spring that works in conjunction with its main coil spring to control the shock's progression. With this added feature, a rider will still rely on the main coil to support their body weight while setting sag – but can easily add up to 35% progression relative to a traditional coil shock. These adjustments are made using a basic shock pump.

- RAMP Tube Technology offers mid-stroke and bottom out support of an air shock, with the ground tracking and grip of a coil shock
