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:
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.

Verified OwnerI've ridden this shock hard for a month now and it has been fabulous. I wanted to soften up the top end of the suspension on my bike, yet keep the performance in the mid and bottom end of the stroke. It has done exactly that. I now have the confidence that the small loose jank won't throw me off line during the fast descents. Also, it climbs amazing. I do not use the lock out switch when climbing.

First and foremost, customer service is absolutely superb. I had a small issue, and they took care of it ASAP, actually went above and beyond. The new coil for my spur, is exactly what I was searching for, cherry on top of the cake for my favorite bike.

If you are in Canada, beware the shipping. They use DHL and I was charged 50% of my total order value as “duty fees” on arrival. Other than that, the shock works good. Factory tune is really good as well. Even though it’s not a downhill recommended shock, I did take it for a park day just to see. The oil definitely gets the shock warm to the touch, but not hot enough to hinder performance and dampening. My only complaint is that dirt and dust somehow gets into the coil seat and makes a really loud squeak, haven’t figured out a solution aside from taking the coil off and cleaning it after long rides. The progressive coil feels very supportive on big hits.
