DT Swiss R 232 ONE Trunnion Remote ready shock 2023 model

The DT Swiss R 232 ONE Trunnion Remote-ready shock with Trunnion mount

Built for cross-country frames with a Trunnion mount, the DT Swiss R232 ONE shock is remote-ready. That means you connect it to the Double Stage handlebar remote. You then only need a single control lever for both shock and fork, keeping your cockpit especially clean. The shock offers three compression settings, so you can pick the right one for every riding situation. On downhill sections, OPEN mode gives you maximum damping and the greatest traction. DRIVE mode allows enough damping to soak up bumps while still delivering good forward drive. Thanks to the LineAir suspension system, traction here increases linearly, resulting in a calmer, more composed ride. In LOCK mode, you convert your power into speed as efficiently as possible, with virtually no damping at all.

Damping, or compression speed, can be adapted to suit the riding situation. This happens across three settings: OPEN, DRIVE, and LOCK.

In OPEN mode, the shock responds sensitively to every bump, which makes it best suited to descents. It can be fine-tuned across 13 individual increments to match rider weight and tire pressure.

DRIVE mode responds to bigger bumps while allowing almost no energy loss through the damping otherwise. This setting is therefore recommended on technical sections and gentle climbs.

In LOCK mode, you effectively get a rigid fork, so pedaling force is converted efficiently into forward drive with no energy loss.

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

LineAir suspension system

A low breakaway force allows traction to build early. Traction then rises linearly through the mid-stroke and builds into a steep progression near the end of the travel for firm bottom-out resistance without harsh spikes. This is achieved through an air-chamber spring system in which, at full extension, the negative air chamber holds higher pressure than the positive air chamber.
