The Kitsuma shocks were specially developed by Cane Creek for demanding descents. Even on the roughest and steepest trails, they are designed to provide maximum traction and a safe riding experience. As the only four-way adjustable shocks that can be set without tools, the setup can be quickly adjusted to be ready to go again straight away.

Several improvements have been implemented in the second Kitsuma generation. The adjustment knobs can now be operated with just one turn and have laser-engraved position markings, which makes tuning even more intuitive. The knobs also feature machined grooves for more precise handling.

A higher maximum high-speed rebound provides better control on big hits, hard compressions, jumps and landings, while a lower minimum high-speed compression allows for smoother handling on abrupt bumps or technical trails.

Revised valve seats and improved shock tube material increase reliability. The updated, modern graphics visually match the current Cane Creek damper range. There are also two color variants: black/gold and silver, with the latter initially being offered in limited quantities.
