Reba lower legs do not include decals. It still uses the DebonAir air spring and well as rebound damping adjustment the shock gets a three position lever climb switch which Rockshox says keeps the bike higher in its travel when engaged. Again the shock is available in a standard or a trunnion mount. The Super Deluxe range of shock will be most commonly fitted to more enduro orientated, harder-hitting bikes with mm of travel. Here the 'piggyback' distributes the compression damping between two circuits which allowed the engineers to refine the feel making the shock more sensitive.

Rockshox says that being able to split the compression loads allow them to refine the feel of the shock creating a more sensitive shock in the initial stroke making it feel more supple. More oil in the system also leads to less heat build-up, heat can reduce damping force so the shock speeds up when hot, therefore a piggyback can keep a more consistent feel and more consistent performance too.

As well as this, keeping the IFP and damper charge usually nitrogen away from the main body of the shock there can be less heat build-up over a long descent which would otherwise change damping characteristics.

In addition to this, the Super Deluxe range is available as an air shock or a coil shock, both in a range of specifications.

The base model shock is the Deluxe Select, it uses the brands' DebonAir spring and you can adjust the rebound damping, the damper type is listed as 'R' indicating the rebound adjustment. You can add or remove volume reducers tokens to tune the feel of the shock further. The damper type will be listed as 'RT' indicating there is rebound adjustment and that Threshold lever. As above, but the Super Deluxe Ultimate also features external low speed compression damping adjustment.

It also benefit from something Rockshox called 'Counter Measure' which they say reduces the breakaway force of the shock to near zero pounds, increasing sensitivity of the shock. Counter Measure is effectively a negative spring working in the damper rather than the air chamber, it balances the IFP floating piston separating high pressure nitrogen champer with the oil on the other side pressure, eliminating the force you might otherwise need to initiate shock movement.

The damper type is listed as RCT, indicating rebound, compression and threshold features. Lastly, you can also get this shock with hardware fitted for a remote lockout threshold lever on the bars.

The shock still gets rebound and low speed compression damping adjustments. Using coil rather than an air spring, Rockshock aims to bring the consistency of a coil spring shock to trail and enduro bikes. This shock still benefits from the 'Counter Measure' tech as described in the Super Deluxe Ultimate shock section.

Again these shocks are all in metric sizes a new set of sizes for rear shocks that have been agreed upon by several suspension and frame manufacturers and they all use Maxima Plush Fluid to reduce friction, silence damper noise and give a consistent feel in all temperatures. The steel springs for the shock are available in 50lbs increments from lbs - lbs length dependant. An option that will be put to use on some enduro bikes where riders are climbing as much as they are descending.

Without sounding like a broken record, the Ultimate version of the Super Deluxe Coil shock has all of the above features with the addition of a low speed adjustment dial. You can also get this sock with hardware fitted for a remote lockout threshold lever on the bars. The SID range is Rockshox premium cross country range of forks and shocks. They all got a revamp for where two brand new, lightweight shocks were added to the collection.

To find out more about the details of the new range , click here. RockShox says the shocks have a new weight focused XC design that at g is lighter than other rear shocks available.

Install the air cap. Ario 2. With 90degrees of lever movement, changes the compression damping of the shock from open and active to locked out. The lockout features a blow-off circuit to help reduce the probability of shock or frame damage in the event of an impact while in the locked out position. By turning the gold Floodgate adjuster on the MC shock, you can tune your desired level of efficiency. Turning the adjuster clockwise increases the efficiency of your shock, reducing pedal induced bob.

R settings. Begin with the Floodgate adjuster in the full counterclockwise position. On flat, smooth pavement, begin riding at your normal pedal cadence. Increase the Floodgate setting by turning the adjuster clockwise until no movement is felt in the shock.

Alternatively, use an assistant to watch your riding, paying particular attention to suspension movement. Rebound Damping Adjustment The shock includes a red rebound damping adjustment knob. Rebound is the extension or return stroke of the shock. Rebound damping adjustment allows you to control the rate at which the shock extends after it is compressed.

The shocks rebound is quickest when the adjustment knob is in the full counterclockwise position. Rebound is slowest when the adjustment knob is in the full clockwise position. This warranty only applies to the original owner and is not transferable. Claims under this warranty must be made through the retailer where the bicycle or the SRAM component was purchased. Original proof of purchase is required. Setting Rebound When you are setting rebound, a good starting point is the curb test.

Be sure this is done after you set up your sag. Set your rebound adjuster fully counterclockwise. Ride the bike off the curb sitting in the saddle and count the number of times the shock bounces before returning to nominal sag. You want to achieve one bounce. Turn the rebound adjuster a quarter turn clockwise and ride off the curb again.

Continue to do this until one bounce is achieved. Record the number of turns from the fully closed full clockwise position. Local law This warranty statement gives the customer specific legal rights.
