Cane Creek DB Tigon Coil steel spring rear shock Trunnion

Tigon is an entirely new DB Twin Tube shock that combines the sensitivity of a coil shock with the tunable support of an air spring – to fuel your most creative and playful riding yet.
Tigon tracks the ground and grips like a coil shock, but thanks to our new patent-pending RAMP Tube Technology it also offers the mid-stroke and bottom out support that is often required from an air shock. Both of these benefits are now delivered in an entirely new layout that better withstands side-loading and buckling forces that can harm traditional coil shocks. Want sensitivity and grip? Tigon delivers. Want more support? Just add air!
Tigon’s RAMP Tube is a small air spring that works in conjunction with its main coil spring to control the shock’s progression. With this added feature, a rider will still rely on the main coil to support their body weight while setting sag – but can easily add up to 35% progression relative to a traditional coil shock. These adjustments are made using a basic shock pump.

• Highlights:
• Coil sensitivity with air support
• Main coil spring allows Tigon to offer incredible grip and ground-tracking sensitivity
• RAMP Tube Technology allows riders to add 20-35% more progression than typical coil shocks (30psi max)
• Significantly increased strength due to the bracing provided by RAMP Tube
• Hand-built by riders in Western North Carolina
• Weight: +/438g* (210 – without spring, varies by size)
• Damping: DB Twin Tube Technology
• Adjustments: RAMP Tube, independent high & low-speed compression, low-speed rebound, 2 position Climb Switch
• Shaft Diameter: 12.7mm (1/2")
• Manufacturing: Designed, tested, and hand assembled in Fletcher, NC
• Trunnion Mount

Note: Shocks are sold without Spring or Hardware!


“…there’s no other shock on the market that can claim all of the Tigon's selling points. Most importantly, the Tigon is strong enough to withstand clevis shock mounts. Simply put, it's supple, strong, consistent, and resists bottoming.”
