Description
High-Performance Trail Shock with Advanced Tuning Capability
The Fox Float X Factory Series Rear Shock is designed for modern trail and all-mountain bikes that demand increased control, sensitivity, and adjustability. Developed to handle aggressive terrain while maintaining excellent pedaling efficiency, the Float X combines a high-volume air spring, advanced damping technology, and extensive tuning options for a perfectly controlled ride.
Featuring a redesigned reservoir layout, the Float X offers improved frame compatibility while reducing weight and optimizing performance. The high-flow piston delivers smooth compression performance across a wide adjustment range, while the independent compression circuit provides a firm mode for efficient climbing and fast transitions between different riding conditions.
The new 2-position Open/Firm lever allows riders to quickly switch between plush descending performance and efficient pedaling support. With adjustable low-speed compression, rebound tuning, and customizable air volume spacers, the Float X can be precisely configured for different riders, bikes, and terrain.
