Description
Advanced Trail Suspension with Enduro-Level Control
The Fox Float X Rear Shock is built for modern trail and all-mountain bikes that demand a perfect balance between downhill capability, climbing efficiency, and precise tuning. Developed to handle aggressive terrain, the Float X combines advanced damping technology with a highly adjustable air spring system to deliver confidence and control on every ride.
Featuring a redesigned reservoir optimized for improved frame compatibility, the Float X provides consistent damping performance while reducing weight and improving fit. The high-flow piston delivers smooth compression and a wide tuning range, while the independent compression circuit allows riders to quickly switch between plush Open mode and efficient Firm mode.
With adjustable low-speed compression, rebound tuning, volume spacers, and an advanced MCU end-stroke damper, the Float X can be customized to match different riding styles, terrain, and bike setups. Every adjustment dial and the air valve have been repositioned for easier access, making setup and tuning faster than ever.
