This rear shock features a DNM Pneumatic design, which is notably lighter than traditional coil shocks. This weight reduction allows for better handling and agility on the bike, making it an excellent upgrade from older shock models. The shock is expertly CNC machined to prevent any air or oil leakage, ensuring consistent performance during your rides. One of the notable improvements of the AO-38RC is the elimination of the negative air valve, developed specifically to avoid potential frame contact, enhancing compatibility with a wider range of bike frames.
Adjusting the performance characteristics of the DNM AO-38RC is straightforward, thanks to its intuitive design. The Rebound Adjustment Knob allows you to control the damper’s response to your riding style. By rotating the knob in one direction, you can increase damping (slow), while rotating it in the opposite direction decreases damping (fast). This feature provides you with the flexibility to fine-tune your ride based on the terrain and your personal preferences.
Additionally, the Compression Adjuster allows for easy lock-out and opening adjustments. This means that you can quickly adapt your shock settings on-the-fly, depending on whether you’re climbing a steep incline or descending a rugged trail. The main air chamber is supplied with air pressure according to the pressure meter, offering precise control over your shock settings.
For optimal performance, it is crucial to set the air pressure in the main chamber according to your weight. Below is a detailed barometric recommendation for various weight categories:
Weight (lbs) | Main Air Chamber Pressure (Psi) |
120 | 90 Psi |
140 | 105 Psi |
160 | 120 Psi |
180 | 135 Psi |
200 | 150 Psi |
220 | 165 Psi |
In summary, the DNM AO-38RC MTB Rear Shock combines lightweight construction, superior functionality, and ease of adjustment, making it a top choice for cyclists looking to enhance their riding experience. Whether you’re tackling rough trails or cruising on smoother surfaces, this rear shock is engineered to provide the comfort and control you need, allowing you to focus on the ride ahead.
