Ride Smoother. Ride Faster. Ride with Confidence.
The Specialized Future Shock 3.3 suspension system revolutionises road cycling performance by delivering 20mm of tunable, hydraulically damped travel directly between the stem and head tube, right where road vibrations and impacts hit first.
Originally introduced in 2016 and proven with back-to-back wins at Paris-Roubaix in 2018 and 2019, Future Shock reduces impact and vibration by over 50% compared to leading competitors, ensuring unmatched comfort and control over rough roads, cobblestones, and chip seal.
Hydraulic Damping for Total Control
Future Shock 3.3 is hydraulically damped to manage movement precisely, improving ride quality without sacrificing responsiveness. Whether climbing smooth tarmac or descending a bumpy canyon road, it adapts in real time.
Highly Tunable Suspension System
Personalise your ride feel with interchangeable springs (Soft, Medium, Firm) and up to five preload washers. Achieve the perfect setup for your riding style, aggressive, endurance, or relaxed, and terrain preferences.
On-the-Fly Compression Adjustability
Fine-tune your ride mid-ride. Keep it stiff for climbs, then open up the suspension for technical descents or rough surfaces. The Future Shock 3.3 offers unmatched compression adjustability in the saddle.
Easy Home Setup & Maintenance
Future Shock 3.3 is fully serviceable and user-adjustable. If you can remove a stem, you can tune your Future Shock. Upgraded durability ensures long-term performance.
