RockShox Vivid / Kage Coil Spring

Spring rate selection is highly personal and depends on your rider weight, bike leverage ratio, and preferred sag. A 450lb spring is a mid-range weight, but you should consult your specific bike frame's suspension setup guide to ensure it aligns with your target sag percentage.

No, this spring is specifically engineered for RockShox Vivid and Kage rear shocks. The inner diameter and coil design are tailored to fit these units, so it will not seat correctly on shocks from other manufacturers.

These numbers represent the eye-to-eye length (240mm) and the stroke length (76mm) of the shock body this spring is designed to fit. You must match these dimensions exactly to your current shock to ensure the spring fits the shock body and provides the correct travel.

Steel coil springs offer a more linear feel and consistent performance, as they are not affected by temperature changes or friction from air seals. They are generally preferred by riders who prioritize small-bump sensitivity and a 'planted' feel over the weight savings and adjustability of air shocks.

No, this is a replacement coil spring only. You will need to reuse the existing spring retainers and mounting hardware from your current RockShox Vivid or Kage shock setup.
