Coil IL

2 reviews|22 answered questions

SHORT TRAVEL, BIG PERFORMANCE - $579.99



The world’s lightest twin tube coil shock, designed for the rider who values going up as much as going down and able to transform a short travel bike into something much, much more.  

The ground-tracking sensitivity of coil gives a level of control to your bike that you never thought possible – without the weight and bulk of larger shocks or the inefficiency of longer-travel suspension platforms.   

Powered by DB Twin Tube technology, IL shocks give a super wide range of 4-way damping adjustability and use 30% more oil volume in the damper compared to other inline shocks. Stock-level suspension makes all kinds of concessions to suit the larger market, and when the amount of rear travel is already minimal, IL is perhaps the most noticeable upgrade you can make to your bike’s performance.   

Highlights: 

  • Four-way independent adjustment 
  • Climb Switch & integrated tool 
  • Thicker damper shaft for increased strength 
  • 210 grams (without spring) 
  • 17mm reduction in overall width on the valve body to increase fitment possibilities on tight frames
  • Added detents on the preload collar allow more precise preload tuning

Hand-assembled and individually dyno-tested in our Western North Carolina facility, IL shocks continue to provide a level of quality, performance, and rider benefit that is unmatched.

Hi! Would this shock fit inside the v3 Hightower? I believe the tunnel is a bit wider than the v4 tallboy. Any insight would be awesome :) Ryan asked on March 9, 2024

Would this fit a 2021 Norco Fluid FS2? Nick asked on March 6, 2024

Hello, we do not have confirmed fitment of our Coil IL and this model Norco, sorry.

Would this fit on the 2017 Rocky Mountain Pipeline? The carbon frame has a pretty tight linkage... not sure if there would be any room for the coil Zmetz7 asked on January 13, 2024

Due to the age of this frame, we have not been able to confirm fitment. It is unlikely that the Coil IL would fit.

Would this shock fit a spark 970. It says it comes stock with a trunnion 165x45 Cj asked on January 2, 2024

The current Sparcs use a proprietary shock design and therefore can't be set up with aftermarket rear shocks. Thank you for thinking of us though! If you ever want to upgrade the fork to something a bit burlier and more substantial, Helm would be a great thing to consider!
