As of April 2026, RockShox has not released a “Vivid Air” model for 2027. The Vivid series primarily includes coil-sprung shocks, such as the Vivid Coil, which has been well-received for its plush performance and adjustability. (blisterreview.com)
In 2024, RockShox introduced the Vivid Air, an air-sprung version of the Vivid shock. This model features a high-volume Debonair air can and a new RC2T damper with TouchDown technology, offering a sensitive initial stroke and a more linear spring curve. (blisterreview.com)
For the 2027 model year, RockShox has updated its suspension lineup with the Vivid Coil shock, which includes a redesigned reservoir, improved oil flow, and a reduced IFP pressure for enhanced sensitivity and damping stability. (enduro-mtb.com)
If you’re interested in air-sprung options, the Vivid Air remains a viable choice. However, if you’re looking for the latest advancements in coil-sprung shocks, the 2027 Vivid Coil offers significant improvements over previous models.
