Intend improved their Hover Monocoque rear shocks both in the light and the standard version. Focus is on usability and just having fun on the trails. Equipped with 3 lock positions, road, trail and downhill, the Intend shock always offers the right mode for the right surface.

The light version of the Hover Monocoque offers less suspension travel than the standard version, is more compact and has a different sealing head. Progression cannot be adjusted, but is set in advance by Intend. This ensures a balanced and lighter shock and avoid fiddling to get the exact right progression.

The Intend custom shim-stack tuning, tailored to rider weight, frame and riding style, has been optimized over the last three years, so you get a perfect fitting shock for your bike. Any questions? Ask the teacher (check video below).
