Cane Creek DB Coil CS
Coilover shocks have always offered the ultimate in suspension performance when it comes to descending, but with a penalty on the climbs. The Cane Creek DB Coil CS offers the incredible support and control of a coilover shock with the addition of a unique climb switch, which at the flick of a lever optimises the shock’s damping for climbing. The DB Coil CS offers full, independent control over both high- and low-speed compression and rebound circuits, allowing full custom tuning, and when set up correctly delivers incredible performance. There is a small weight penalty over an air shock, but for those who love superior traction, heat resistance, and ultimate performance, the DB Coil CS is magnificent.
