Meet the latest and greatest offering from Cane Creek. The Tigon presents a revolutionary DB Twin Tube shock, seamlessly melding the small bump compliance of a coil shock with the adaptable reinforcement achievable with an air spring.
Tigon provides the ground-tracking and gripped up feeling of a coil shock, yet, thanks to Cane Creeks innovative patent-pending RAMP Tube Technology, it also furnishes the crucial mid-stroke and bottom-out support commonly sought in an air shock. Both these advantages are now embodied in a completely redesigned configuration that better endures lateral forces and stresses, safeguarding against the detrimental effects typically inflicted on traditional coil shocks.
Tigon’s RAMP Tube, a compact air spring, collaborates with its primary coil spring to regulate the shock's progression. With this enhancement, riders continue to rely on the main coil for supporting their body weight and establishing sag, but they can effortlessly incorporate up to 35% more progression compared to a conventional coil shock. These adjustments are conveniently executed using a basic shock pump.
Seeking sensitivity and grip? Tigon delivers. In need of additional support? Simply introduce air!

* If you are unsure about shock size, hardware size, spring rates, or function of adjustments please see out Tech Support page 'here'
* While we can assist with shock sizing, NSDynamics does not have detailed specifications from all frame manufacturers and is not responsible for final choice of shock size/stroke, and cannot guarantee returns/refunds on any used or accidentally purchased items
* Mounting hardware must be purchased separately if you do not intend to reuse the hardware and DU bushes from an existing shock. If you do not purchase mounting hardware it will not be supplied with the damper
* If mounting hardware is not purchased, any DU bushes supplied are simply provided as standard by the manufacturer, but may/may not be compatible with your existing mounting hardware due to spacing differences
