    Tigon 230x60

    I've been using air shock's for years and never wanted to switch to a coil purely for the lack of bottom out resistance and progression. After talking to Cane Creek about the Tigon I was sold. The team was super helpful with the ordering process and helping me find the perfect setup for the shock. Now after riding a few times on the shock I can confidently say that I would never get anything else.

    Uplifted my Stumpjumper EVO to another level, essentially a new bike. Smooth, more support, and more control. No issues after 10 months of extensive use, bombproof.

Tigon combines what's good about air and coil shocks and is designed to expand what you can accomplish with trail and enduro bikes. Tigon tracks the ground and grips with its main coil spring but thanks to RAMP Tube, a small internal air spring, it also offers the tunable mid-stroke and bottom-out support that is often required from an air shock.

  • The only air-charged coil shock - offering coil sensitivity with tunable air support.
  • Ability to add 20-35% more progression than typical coil shocks
  • Offers coil shock benefits for bikes that are otherwise considered 'not compatible'.
  • Significantly increased strength compared to standard coil shock – great for bikes using a clevis, or shock yoke to drive the shock.

Great for trail and enduro riders that prioritize jumping, dropping, and riding bold new lines.

Tigon Promo

FROM ROCK GARDENS TO HARD-PACKED JUMP LINES

Tigon combines the ground tracking sensitivity of a coil shock with the mid-stroke and bottom out support of an air shock. Cane Creek’s Engineering team produced the world’s first DB Twin Tube shock that defies traditional shock categories. 

The air-charged RAMP Tube on Tigon allows riders to make quick, easy adjustments to increase liveliness, add support, or conversely, improve the plushness of their ride.

SENSITIVITY OR SUPPORT? CHOOSE BOTH.

RAMP TUBE TECHNOLOGY

WANT MORE SUPPORT? JUST ADD AIR!

Using a basic shock pump, riders can now tune the support of their coil shock by adding pressure to the RAMP Tube. This added air chamber increases the progression of the shock and gives all the mid-stroke and bottom out support that you may want. RAMP Tube makes Tigon capable of providing 20-35% more progression than a typical coil shock. (30psi max)

SUPREME GRIP

WANT MORE SENSITIVITY? TIGON DELIVERS.

The supreme sensitivity of coil is always present, providing the most active suspension possible – no matter the air pressure. If desired, riders can remove air from the RAMP Tube to turn Tigon into a more linear, traditional coil shock to amplify its ground-tracking ability. Encountering steep, technical, and slippery trails? Simply remove the air from the RAMP Tube for a shock setup that stays more planted to the ground.

STRENGTH AND RELIABILITY

BUILT TO LAST

Tigon expands the usable market for coil by providing a more resilient solution for clevis and trunnion mount frames.

The bracing provided by RAMP Tube, paired with an oversized damper shaft relocated to the middle of the shock, adds a significant amount of lateral strength.
Jay J. Pilot Rock

“…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.”

– Matt Beer, Pinkbike
