Abstract
Example bicycle suspension components are described herein. An example suspension component includes a spring and a damper configured in a telescoping arrangement. The shock absorber has a first end and a second end opposite the first end. The second end has an eyelet. The example suspension component also includes a shock end mount coupled to the first end of the shock absorber. The shock end mount includes a frame bracket. The frame bracket includes a first frame attachment portion to be coupled to a frame of the bicycle. The eyelet on the second end of the shock absorber defines a second frame attachment portion to be coupled to the frame of the bicycle. The shock end mount includes an elastomeric member to enable relative movement between the shock absorber and the first frame attachment portion. The elastomeric member is disposed outside of a region between the first frame attachment portion and the second frame attachment portion.
