Kitsuma is a strong, gravity-first shock that allows you to go faster thanks to a more personalized tune. With a high-volume air spring and the most damper oil of our entire shock family, it offers amazing downhill performance, while still giving you the easy setup and tunable support of an air shock.
Kitsuma’s defining feature is its tool-free, 4-way damper controls. Easily adjusted by hand and offering a visual indication of your settings, Kitsuma encourages you to develop your own custom, pro-level tune – all in the name of supporting you getting down the hill faster and with more control than before.
Kitsuma favors descending but it’s not afraid to climb, with a rock-solid firm setting, it’s a gravity-first shock that wants to be pedaled to the top of the mountain for another run down.

Verified OwnerBest air shock on the market. On my Yeti SB150, much better feeling than the stock fox shock.

Verified OwnerSuch a huge improvement to the stock shock on a Stumpy EVO. Finally feels like it has both mid travel support and bottom up support. Adjustments are super easy and each feels like it actually adjusts something you can feel. Super easy to setup and customer service was great when I needed to ask a dumb question. I shouldn't have waited so long to get one of these.

Verified OwnerAwesome just like the cool version. Although I did have to clock the air valve to the correct position for frame clearance.
