Shocks

The Monarch's lightweight design not only delivers silky smooth travel, but thanks to a redesigned Solo Air spring with updated damping controls, it also delivers a spring rate you’d generally only get from a much heavier coil shock. Monarch floats through bumps even better than before, turning rugged trails into tire-gripping velvet. The chassis is lean while maintaining the durability and adjustability needed to bite off huge chunks of burly trail action and epic cross country. The Monarch RT3 features external rebound and 3-Position compression adjustment (Open/Pedal/Lock). - Intended Use: XC, Trail - Rapid Recovery allows the shock to recovery faster between consecutive bumps, letting the wheel track the ground with greater precision - SoloAir spring lets you add air to your forks through a single Schrader valve, filling both the positive and negative air spring chambers simultaneously - Fast Black hard anodized, forged aluminum body with sag gradients - 10mm 7075 aluminum shaft - Autosag is a simple set-up feature available only on Specialized bicycles. This feature utilizes the rider's weight to set proper shock pressure

- RC2T damper is only found at the Ultimate level and features externally adjustable, truly independent High and Low Speed Compression along with an increased range of rebound adjustment. - Riders can fine-tune damping from the factory base tune for a more personalized feel while factoring in ride style and terrain.
