Vivid Ultimate RC2T Air D1 210 x 50/52.5/55mm

The RockShox Vivid Ultimate is a World Cup-proven rear shock designed to deliver maximum control and consistency for aggressive enduro, downhill, and e-MTB riding. Built around the updated RC2T damper and LinearXL air spring, it combines a coil-like ride feel with the tuneability and efficiency of an air system, giving riders confidence across the full travel range.

The LinearXL air spring provides a highly predictable ride character, with supple small-bump sensitivity, strong mid-stroke support, and a controlled, adjustable end-stroke. Adjustable Bottom Out allows fine-tuning of the final portion of travel, helping to manage heavy impacts without compromising usable travel. The revised RC2T damper features improved main piston compression tunes and reduced IFP forces, delivering increased traction and responsiveness across varied terrain.

Independent high- and low-speed compression adjustment with a numbered dial makes setup simple and repeatable, while 20 clicks of rebound ensure consistent control across a wide range of rider weights and conditions. Designed to integrate seamlessly with modern suspension systems, the Vivid Ultimate sets a new benchmark for air shock performance.

Tracking and Notifications

All outgoing parcels are tracked. Tracking details will be provided once the item has been dispatched. NSDynamics does not send arrival notifications for inbound service items unless the parcel is damaged in transit or missing important components required for service.

Customers are encouraged to use tracked and insured freight when sending items to NSDynamics. Responsibility for the parcel remains with the sender until the item is received and checked in at the NSDynamics workshop.

Shipping Fees

Return express postage back to the customer is included free of charge for all full Factory and Hyperformance service types. It does not apply to minor repairs or basic services. Shipping charges for parts or accessories are calculated during checkout.

Postage to NSDynamics is the responsibility of the customer unless otherwise arranged. Warranty items may qualify for return postage coverage only if they were originally supplied by NSDynamics and a clear fault is confirmed.

Shipping Insurance

All parcels sent from NSDynamics are covered under NSDynamics’ freight insurance. In the unlikely event that an item is lost or damaged during return transit, it will be replaced with a comparable item where possible. If a parcel arrives damaged, photo evidence must be supplied immediately. NSDynamics is not responsible for parcels where the receiver has chosen the 'Authority To Leave' option. 

Packaging Requirements

Customers must ensure that their suspension is packaged securely and appropriately for shipping. If an item arrives in packaging that is damaged or unsuitable for safe return, NSDynamics may use a heavy-duty branded box and apply a $5 fee to the final invoice. This ensures your suspension is protected during return freight. Customers are encouraged to retain and reuse this box for future service bookings.

Transit Times and Delays

While NSDynamics uses express freight to minimise delivery delays, transit times cannot be guaranteed. NSDynamics is not responsible for delays caused by freight carriers, public holidays, weather events, or other external disruptions. If a parcel has been delayed more than 5 business days beyond its expected delivery date, customers are welcome to contact NSDynamics for support.

Public Holidays

Unfortunately our workshop is closed on all nationwide and Queensland-specific public holidays, so we are not able to ship sales or service orders on these days. Any services or sales orders placed on public holidays will be processed and dispatched the following business day.

New Zealand and International Shipping

NSDynamics offers international shipping to New Zealand via Australia Post. Standard delivery times range from 5 to 10 business days. Customers are responsible for providing accurate delivery details and ensuring someone is available to receive the parcel.

Goods sent to New Zealand may be subject to import duties and GST. NSDynamics does not collect or cover any customs charges. It is the customer’s responsibility to be aware of local import requirements and costs. Orders returned, delayed, or destroyed due to unpaid duties or taxes are not the responsibility of NSDynamics.

In the event that a product needs to be returned from New Zealand, including for warranty inspection, all return postage costs are the responsibility of the customer. NSDynamics does not cover international return freight for items not originally purchased from NSDynamics.

International orders are processed in New Zealand Dollars (NZD), and prices do not include Australian GST. Currency conversions may vary depending on the payment platform used at checkout.
