Cane Creek VALT Rear Shock Spring

The VALT spring uses high-performance steel to achieve a significantly lower weight than standard steel coils. This allows you to get the consistent, supple feel of a coil shock without the typical weight penalty that usually discourages riders from switching.

This spring is designed with a 36.5mm inner diameter and a 65mm length. You must verify that these dimensions match your specific shock's requirements and that the spring rate is appropriate for your bike's leverage ratio and your riding weight.

A progressive spring curve means the shock becomes firmer as it moves deeper into its travel. You will notice excellent small-bump sensitivity at the start of the stroke, but with increased resistance toward the end, which helps prevent harsh bottom-outs on big hits.

The VALT spring is engineered to begin its progression at 50% into the stroke. This ensures you maintain a plush, active feel through the first half of the travel while gaining the necessary support for more aggressive riding styles.

No, it is designed for a 'set it and forget it' experience. Because it is crafted from premium spring steel, it maintains its rate and performance consistently over time with minimal maintenance beyond standard shock service intervals.
