DT Swiss R 232 ONE Trunnion Lever shock

The DT Swiss R 232 ONE shock with integrated adjustment lever and Trunnion mount

The DT Swiss R232 ONE Lever shock was designed for the needs of cross-country riders. It fits full-suspension frames with a Trunnion mount. Using the lever built into the shock, it can be set to three different modes: OPEN mode for maximum damping on descents, DRIVE mode for technically demanding climbs, and LOCK mode for fast, power-efficient forward progress.

Control damping system:

The damping, or compression speed, can be adapted to each riding situation. This is done in three stages: OPEN, DRIVE, and LOCK.

In OPEN mode, the shock responds finely to every bump in the terrain. It is therefore best suited to descents. It can be individually adjusted across 13 fine increments to match rider weight and tire pressure.

DRIVE mode responds to larger bumps while allowing almost no energy loss through damping otherwise. This setting is therefore recommended for technical sections and light climbs.

In LOCK mode, the shock becomes rigid, allowing pedaling force to be converted efficiently into forward drive, since no energy is lost.

The three compression settings are adjusted via oil channels that open to different degrees, allowing for varying amounts of damping. In LOCK mode, the oil channels are fully closed to prevent damage from hard impacts; in that case, a blow-off valve opens automatically.

Line
Air suspension system:

A low breakaway force allows for early-stage damping. Damping then increases linearly through the mid-stroke and reaches a steep progressive rise at the end of the stroke, allowing for strong compression without bottoming out. This is achieved through an air-spring system in which, at full extension, the negative air chamber holds higher pressure than the positive air chamber.
