Öhlins TTX22m.2 Rear Shock – Next-Gen Coil Performance for Gravity and Trail
The Öhlins TTX22m.2 is the next evolution of big-hit suspension, building on the proven performance of the original TTX22 coil shock—long regarded as the benchmark for professional gravity riders. This updated version brings improved bottom-out control, easier stroke adjustment, and enhanced fitment versatility, all while maintaining the supreme traction, control, and tunability Öhlins is known for.
Enhanced Bottom-Out Performance
The TTX22m.2 features a redesigned bump rubber and cup assembly that significantly improves mid-to-end stroke support. Acting as a secondary spring, this setup engages earlier and delivers more consistent, predictable feedback during heavy compressions. The result is better control and quicker recovery through harsh impacts, especially beneficial for bikes with less progressive suspension designs. This upgrade also helps reduce the risk of hard bottom-outs, which can negatively affect handling.
Tool-Free Stroke and Spring Adjustments
Adjusting the shock stroke is simple and doesn’t require disassembly or special tools. Riders can fine-tune stroke length by adding or removing 2.5mm washers under the bump rubber cup. Swapping the coil spring is equally straightforward—just loosen the preload and remove the spring seat lock ring to slide the spring off over the end eye. This user-friendly design makes optimizing sag and ride feel faster and easier.
Wider Tuning Range
The updated high-speed compression valve (blue trail mode) now offers a broader adjustment range, giving riders more tuning options to match their terrain and riding style. The expanded range also enhances support in pedal mode, improving climbing efficiency. The golden DH compression valve retains the original’s gravity-optimized range, ensuring downhill performance remains uncompromised.
Improved Frame Compatibility
Öhlins has redesigned the cylinder heads for both standard eyelet and trunnion mount versions, introducing a side-by-side reservoir layout that makes the shock more compact. This new configuration increases compatibility across a wider variety of modern bike frames. Additionally, a traditional in-line piggyback version is available for trunnion setups.
The TTX22m.2 is the perfect blend of performance, versatility, and ease of use—built for riders who demand top-tier coil suspension in everything from trail riding to full-on downhill racing.
