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 youd generally only get from a much heavier coil shock. So you get a durable fully adjustable shock capable of smoothing out the most aggressive trails while simultaneously saving you weight for epic cross country riding. The Monarch RT3 features external rebound and 3-Position compression adjustment (Open/Pedal/Lock).
