Coil shock performance as you state depends massively on the bike you fit it to. I've compared the same version (Cane Creek Kitsuma Air vs Coil) on my bike and very much prefer the coil everywhere. It doesn't compromise climbing in any way. The lockout, if you want to use it, is almost hardtail firm, and the descending performance is just stellar. Well worth whatever weight penalty there will be.

As a bigger rider myself, I'd add the caveat that in general a bigger rider wants MORE progression on the back end not less. I actually put a cascade link on my bike to increase the progression curve, which allowed me to drop from 5 volume spacers to 3 on the air shock. I also tend to prefer a poppy bike over a planted one, so personal preference.

I weigh 260 pounds of mostly muscle and I can confidently say that bike weight matters very little to me. But when my 130 pound girlfriend is riding my overbuilt steel hard-core hardtail the weight does have a noticeable effect. I think weight as a proportion of total weight of rider and gear is far more useful than just weight. A half a kilo spring on a coil shock is just half a percent of the body mass of anyone over 100 kilos or 230 pounds.

Citroen cars used gas pressure spheres acting as springs. The sphere had a diaphragm across the centreline (equator?). Top was gas pressurised. Bottom contained hydraulic oil. Damping provided by valves in the bottom of the sphere. The oil was pressurised by the suspension strut underneath allowing ride height to be adjusted. Only one seal (like a bike coil shock) but on the fly ride height adjustment and the gas spheres added zero unsprung weight. Check it out.

Bought a Push 11.6 on sale last year for my Ibis Ripmo AF. Bike originally came with a DVO Topaz air shock with Ibis' "traction tune" which lacked any support deeper in the travel from mid-stroke to bottom out, regardless of air pressure, sag %, volume spacers, or bladder air pressure. The Push 11.6 changed how the bike rides so dramatically that I don't think I'll ever ride another air shock. It climbs better, it descends better, it eats the gnar, chews through chunky tech, and begs you to go faster than you probably should. And this is on a bike that most people will tell you is too linear with it's 19% progressivity throughout the travel. On a bike known for it's climbing prowess with the DW Link suspension. IMHO the Push 11.6 is THE WAY on the Ibis Ripmo, period.

I first tried a coil a couple years ago on my Niner RIP 9 RDO. I could never get the stock DPX2 to feel good on choppy fast terrain with lots of continuous quick impacts. Once I put on a coil, the bike was transformed and was light years better everywhere when traction and control was needed on rough terrain. I never noticed the extra weight climbing and it only lost a little pop on jumps compared to air. I love the coil so much I made100% sure my new bike was designed to accommodate one. I do run a air shock on my 2021 Stumpjumper, which I use on smoother and less gnarly trails where the air shock still shines.

Coils are great. They're smooth as butter to the point you can't even feel the trail, you don't have to pump them up and they're always consistent....but I only use them for downhill and freeride. You lose so much energy pedaling as the coil absorbs everything, including your energy. So much more of your energy goes into spinning your tires and you get a great platform with an air shock at the expense of small bump sensitivity.

I had max air spacers in it and i bent 3 pedals and 2 crank arms with pedal strikes in 2 years due to sagging rear end on big hits. the coil shock is far superior supple feel and not bottoming out or sagging & trolling for pedal strikes.

I went with a air shock when I upgraded my yeti sb130 to the lunch ride edition. Ive got fox factory 38 and float x2 giving me 160/140mm travel perspectively. the yeti's in general have a more linear linkage system with the switch infinity link so the air shocks balances that out quite nicely although you can easily get a 210x55 eye length coil shock in there. Heres the contraverial thing is that I race that bike myself being 6'6" that's 198cm for you metric people out there. I love the bike and although the sb150 has 10mm more travel my bike suits me well for racing because I can ride it on everything every day. not saying you cant do that on the 150 but the 130lr gives you a little bit more of a lively feel and makes you work a bit harder on your skills on the bike instead of letting the bike do the work for you. its fun for me might upgrade my frame sometime soon but for now I love my bike and it's great at the races!

All very well for factory supported riders who can endlessly test at each round and have the factory play around with multiple springs to find the perfect one for the riders weight. Joe public need to know just buying a coil shock doesn’t mean it’s automatically going to be better without a lot of messing about. Then you go to the next event and repeat that process all over again. Rider weights dint change but how the spring reacts to the course does. And for that, you need support.

How do you find the suspension on that bike overall ? it looks like canyon have beefed it up with the new version of the same bike cf9, has the lyric and the deluxe with the piggy back , I’m just curious if it was due to negative feedback.

Has anyone tried a progressive spring on the Spectral 29? I just put a Cane Creek VALT 500-610# on my Marzocchi Bomber CR. Looking forward to seeing how that feels. I had a linear Fox 500# spring on there and it felt amazing, but I was getting a pretty good bottom-out on bigger drops.

I had the Spectral AL 29. How did the coil fell on yours ?

How can I know if my bike is progressiv or linear

It could be possible to create a linear experience on an air shock by use of lever and or cam linkage whereby as the air compresses and the shock gets stiffer, then the linkage would operate at a progressively more mechanical advantage i.e. less movement of the shock to more movement of the swingarm. Even better make this user adjustable between progressive and linear to suit the rider

Isn't that what a regressive linkage does?

I like coil shocks better than air and plus you won't be stranded if your shock seal goes
