Discover the revolutionary GENIE shock technology by Specialized - and how this patent-pending, 2-stage air-spring shock technology delivers the best of both worlds: a coil-like liner spring rate mid-stroke and the progressive end-stroke of an air shock.
In this video, we dive into how GENIE shock technology grants every trail rider’s three wishes:
Coil spring bump performance: Experience the smooth and responsive ride of a coil spring.
Air-spring bottom-out prevention: Benefit from the durability and reliability of an air shock.
Tunable platform for a playful feel: Customize your ride for maximum enjoyment and performance.
Join us and learn the features and benefits of GENIE shock technology, designed to elevate your trail riding experience. Whether you’re looking for advanced suspension performance or interested in the latest MTB innovations, this video is for you.

Never owned a specalized, but im stoked this video was mostly shot in Kamloops!😅

awesome literally

also, anyone else see the alloy frame w Shimano mechanical shifting... hopefully soon!

Does this have a negative air chamber or spring?

@jeremiahwheaton2340 Месяц назад

how does it compare to a megneg

@RobertMarsh1988 Месяц назад

It doesn't. Meg neg adds a negative air chamber.

@marcinbalcer1772 Месяц назад

In genie there are three chambers, one small negative, big positive and third bottom out chamber. Fox used to make similar designs, one was named boost valve and later another made for Trek DRCV, but both of them was complex. Genie at first glance looks more simplified compared to previous ones.

How is this different than air shocks with a piggyback?

@PriceKrispies725 Месяц назад

The piggy back is extra oil volume not air. It helps with temperature management to reduce damping fade

@Jakes692 Месяц назад

@@PriceKrispies725 correct 👍 which is a bit of a gimmick in trail/enduro, proven by the fact manufacturers then put stickers around the piggyback can which reduces its cooling capacity

@mitchsargent5543 Месяц назад

@@PriceKrispies725 Sort of...I phrased my question incorrectly. Basically, I'd rather the comparison be between this shock and one with a piggy back...It seems like Specialized's marketing campaign is aiming to get more aggressive riders, which is me, so trying to see through the marketing hype and determine if there's an advantage of this shock over the typical air shock with piggy back. I realize it's more oil, but typically piggy back shocks have low and high speed dampening, which helps change the ramp up (or down), right? These adjustments are not found on non-piggyback shocks. So, while I agree the oil is for temperature, but also it adds features. These features are is essentially what this is shock is doing, but with air, not oil. If that's the case, I'd just like to see a comparison between these 2 types of shocks.

@@mitchsargent5543oh I see what you mean. While adding high and low speed rebound and compression can help resist bottom out. They don’t necessarily change the progression or spring rate. So the resistance they provide at the beginning of the stroke is the same at the end of the stroke. This brings about the issue, at least for some riders, of having to find a happy medium between not enough sensitivity at early to mid travel or dealing with bottoming out more if they like the extra squish. That’s what specialized is trying to solve here. If you ask me, I think it’s pretty clever and if it rides how I think it does, it would be sick to see as a non proprietary shock for other bikes.

rockshox vivid has literally been doing this for almost 2 years.

Still not an Öhlins 😅

@LeoHadzic Месяц назад

Potential idea: What if you put a coil over an airshock so u get both at the same time

@FOTB407 Месяц назад

Coil shocks with small air chambers exist, also the ones with hydraulic bottom out Cane creek tigon EXT storia Push industries shock i think RS vivid coil Im sure there are others
