RockShox DebonAir Upgrade Kit

This kit is specifically designed for 2014 and newer Monarch RT3, RC3, RT, R, RL, and XX models, as well as 2013 and newer Monarch RT3 shocks. Please verify your shock's model year and specific version before purchasing to ensure compatibility.

A linear spring curve means the shock feels more consistent throughout its travel rather than ramping up quickly at the end. This results in better small-bump sensitivity and improved traction, as the suspension can track the ground more effectively.

Yes, you will need basic suspension service tools, including a shock pump, strap wrench, and the appropriate seal grease. If you are not comfortable performing a full air can service, we recommend having a professional mechanic install it to ensure the seals are seated correctly.

While it doesn't physically increase the amount of travel your shock provides, it makes the existing travel feel much more usable. By reducing the breakaway force required to start the stroke, the suspension feels more active and supple on technical terrain.

Yes, you will likely need to recalibrate your sag. Because the DebonAir can changes the internal volume of the shock, your previous air pressure settings will no longer be accurate, so plan on spending some time on the trail to dial in your new sag percentage.
