The Kavenz V7 Leverage+ Rocker is designed for lighter riders who have struggled to fully unlock the performance of our VHP rear suspension. Compatible with all previous VHP versions, this higher leverage rocker increases sensitivity, adds travel, and ensures that lighter riders can experience the full potential of their Kavenz bike. More Rear Travel Gain approximately +12 mm of additional rear travel across setups. The result is smoother small bump sensitivity, improved traction, and greater bottom-out support for aggressive trail riding. Plusher Feel for Lighter Riders The V7 Rocker requires a spring rate about 25-50 lbs harder compared to the standard rocker. In simple terms: the shock "thinks" you are heavier, allowing lighter riders to enjoy a softer, plusher feel — improving control, comfort, and overall bike performance. Compatibility: For smaller frame sizes (S and M), we strongly recommend the MX configuration (27.5" rear wheel) to minimize the risk of saddle clearance issues during full bottom-out. Regardless of size, always test saddle clearance after installation to ensure safe operations. Note: In VHP 18-MX Frames with 18/29 Dropouts the Rear Tire could touch the Seat Tube so it´s not recommended to use it. We are still testing here and will probably start offering it with +30 Dropouts in the future.
