CONTEST NOW CLOSED. The winner of the Öhlins Rear Shock is Pinkbike userkrissboo. Congratulationskrissboo
Prize Details: The Öhlins rear shock line up, from the coil-sprung TTX22m to our latest air-sprung addition; the TTX1Air, are all based on our twin-tube damper technology (TTX). One of the key elements of damping, is to ultimately keep control over fluid pressures and its dynamics, this is where TTX technology performs best, with multiple valves and adjusters maintaining controlled oil flow. The Öhlins' detailed design has been developed and refined over decades, for fast pressure build-up and a smoother response keeping pressure balanced over the piston. It's well-engineered design makes the damper more sensitive and minimizes adjustment needs to deliver superior rear wheel traction and control - smoothing out the trail and supporting your momentum. Öhlins have been refining and winning races with TTX-technology since 1993 when Nigel Mansell won an Indy car race using it. It can now found in our suspension for MX, MotoGP, Snowmobiles and Rally cars to mention a few.
High performing TTX-damping is included in all our rear shocks, it's your choice between a lighter air spring or a calm and controlled coil-sprung model. To find if TTX1Air, TTX2Air or TTX22m (incl spring) best suit your ride check out our Performance Suspension Guide; simply select your bike, enter your weight, preferred sag to see which shocks best fit your bike as well as our a recommended spring / air pressure set up.
There will be new prizes revealed every day in the lead up to Dec 25th so check the Advent Calendar daily on the front page of Pinkbike and make sure you enter for a chance to win.
Winners will be notified via the email associated with their Pinkbike account within 48 hours of their name being drawn.

@asapyohanes: it’s quite simple really, all you have to do is read the comments section all year , draft up some quotes based on people’s thoughts. Then set your alarm for 7:57 every day (pull the car over / leave the meeting for the toilet, tell ya kid to cross the road alone etc), have yesterday’s song in your notes in the phone, THEN when it goes live at 8am copy and paste whilst trying to make a lyric from the past years comments - it’s easy bro
Ohlins shock for sale: coil or air, whatever eye to eye and stroke you need, valved for your bike, because I'm not telling them what to send me until I find a buyer...
The odds of me winning are ag astronomically low, but it would save my bike from having a time bomb for a rear shock. That is, if it even comes in the right size of 190x45 (thanks x-fusion, for making shocks in abnormal sizes, it's greatly appreciated).
I really really need this part.. I am trying my best to get my self back on the bike after a long 2 year break. This is the one part I need badly to complete my bike so I can ride again. I'm overweight and almost no rear suspension support 250lb or more. I've had so much bad luck this year that I've lost count. If there was one wish for Christmas it would be a rear suspension!!! Someone else take the bikes! I just need this one..
Great prize, but compatibility is an issue. I guess if I won I would just spec the top model for the most popular bike brand and have to flip it unfortunately.
