Cane Creek Tigon Rear Shock

While it uses a coil spring for that signature supple, ground-hugging feel, the Tigon adds a RAMP Tube. This air-pressurized chamber allows you to tune the mid-stroke support and bottom-out resistance, giving you the playful, poppy feel usually reserved for air shocks.

The RAMP Tube lets you adjust the shock's progression by adding air pressure, up to 30 psi. This allows you to fine-tune how the bike handles big hits and jumps without needing to swap out your coil spring.

The Tigon is a metric shock with a 210mm eye-to-eye length and 55mm stroke. You should verify these measurements against your frame's specific requirements to ensure a proper fit.

No, the coil spring is sold separately. You will need to purchase a Cane Creek VALT coil spring that matches your bike's leverage ratio and your rider weight.

The two-position Climb Switch is designed to firm up the shock for more efficient pedaling on long climbs or smooth fire roads. It effectively reduces pedal bob without locking the shock out completely, maintaining traction when you need it.

The internal architecture is specifically engineered to handle the lateral forces that occur when a bike frame flexes or corners hard. This design helps prevent binding and buckling, leading to smoother performance and increased durability over time.
