Super Deluxe allowed us to ditch old design constraints, and simply focus on building the best possible rear shock. And with that old thinking no longer holding us back, we began to wonder why coil-shock performance had to be limited to purely downhill and enduro applications and why there should be any pedaling compromise associated with a coil shock.
No option spared
In the words of a famous enduro racer, “Lean back and hang on”, because the all-new Super Deluxe Coil brings the consistency and feel of a coil sprung shock to trail and enduro bikes, and the benefits of metric design to downhill bikes. And with remote-lockout options, riders can capitalize on pedaling power anywhere, not just on fire roads.
Sag gradients – coil setup
All Super Deluxe Coil models feature sag gradients printed on the shaft to facilitate the correct setup.
Steel springs will be available from RockShox in 50 lbs increments from 250 to 650, depending on length.
