JS "JEFF STEBER" TUNED SUSPENSION

HOW IT WORKS

JS Tuned uses two short, counter-rotating links that offer the ability to fine-tune shock rates and wheel path in perfect harmony to create a balanced, active suspension system that climbs and accelerates as well as the system descends.

The main takeaway (JS-Tuned Suspension) is excellent small bump sensitivity, better pedaling efficiency, greater control at the top of the suspension, and reduced bottom out. It’s sophisticated, high-level stuff, and the fact that Intense leverages this platform and then meticulously tunes it to each bike is a bit of a big deal.
