Vivid Coil Ultimate DH RC2 Rear Shock - D1

RockShox Vivid Coil Ultimate DH RC2 Rear Shock - D1 is a gravity-focused coil rear shock built for modern downhill bikes that need consistent traction, clear setup, and reliable end-stroke control. The coil spring delivers the signature “planted” feel—supple at the start of travel and supportive through the mid-stroke—while the RC2 damper adds a wide tuning range for riders who want precise control on big hits, braking bumps, and high-speed compressions.

Dial-in control for today’s DH tracks

• Coil-spring sensitivity - Low breakaway friction helps the rear wheel track small chatter and braking bumps for more grip and less deflection at speed
• Adjustable Bottom Out (ABO) - Five-position dial fine-tunes cushioning in the last 20% of travel for confident end-stroke support without harsh spikes
• RC2 compression tuning - Independent High-Speed Compression (HSC) and Low-Speed Compression (LSC) adjustment delivers a wide, usable range with no cross-talk, making it easier to separate ride height support from big-hit control
• Numbered compression adjuster - Start at “0” and add damping in a repeatable way, simplifying setup changes and rider-to-mechanic communication
• 20-click rebound adjustment - Broad range with consistent rebound behavior across settings helps match return speed to rider weight, spring rate, and track conditions
• Reduced IFP forces - Base valve design cuts IFP forces by 40%, improving small-bump suppleness and traction while maintaining damper consistency

Main piston compression tunes are engineered to complement a RockShox Charger 3.2-equipped fork, helping the bike stay balanced and supportive through the mid-stroke when pushing hard. For on-the-fly practicality, the removable rebound knob also functions as the HSC and ABO adjuster, keeping key controls secure and trail-serviceable.
