I'm guessing, it looks like that's just a storage area for the volume shims, so you move them as needed into the air can?

Suspension

Kona worked closely with RockShox when choosing the shock to spec on the Process. They went with the Monarch Plus HV RC3, which takes the technology developed for the Vivid Air downhill shock and puts it into a smaller, lighter shock, ideal for all-mountain applications. The HV in the shock's name refers to the high volume air can. The HV feature lets the rider dial in how progressive their rear shock is simply by removing a rubber spacer. Before we removed any spacers it was difficult to get full travel out of the shock – it was too progressive, and we were only able to use about ¾ of the travel, even on hard hits. After some experimentation, we found that removing two of the spacers gave us the feel we wanted. This feature makes it possible to try different settings without any tools besides a shock pump. Some riders may find that the shock feels fine without any adjustments, but it's nice to have this level of tuneability.

Adjusting the air can volume is as easy as letting the air out of the shock and moving an O-ring in order to slide the air can down to remove a spacer. Once the spacer is off, re-install the can and inflate the shock. It's fine to let the spacer rest on the lower shock mount while trying out a configuration. You'll eventually want to remove the shock to take the rubber band spacer off completely, but it's nice to not have to deal with removing shock mounting hardware at the side of the trail. Once we removed two of the spacers, the shock went through all of its travel smoothly, with a controlled ramp-up at the end to prevent any harsh bottoming out. The Monarch Plus has three compression settings, similar to what Fox has with their Climb, Trail, and Descend modes. We used all of the settings, increasing the compression for long climbs, and opening it all the way for extended downhill sections.

Ooh, but that's not the debonAir shox, that's the HV.
It doesn't work the same.
I got a mate who's received a tunes one with 5 bands in positive and 2 bands in the lowest chamber (part of negative)
Quite RAD !
