Rear shocks




Rear shocks for bicycles at good prices from starbike.com



For many offroad bikers bikes with rear suspension systems are prefered over hardtail bikes. A frame with a rear shock provides better grip and more comfort, because it dampens surface bumps and improves the ground contact of the rear wheel.

Conventional suspension shocks are categorised into two types: steel spring shocks are known for their solidness and performance, while air shocks are lighter, easier to adjust and often come (or can be upgraded) with a remote lockout. Like all bike parts rear shocks are available in all price levels and performance features. The more you invest, the more performance, adjustability options like adjustable rebound damping and/or less weight you get..
