Fox Float X2 Factory Rear Shock Description:
The Fox Float X2 Factory Rear Shock is a rugged air shock that approaches the buttery smooth performance of a coil shock, and a wide assortment of tuning features allow for the easy and precise set up of the rear suspension on any longer travel trail, enduro, or downhill mountain bike. These shocks utilize a rugged monotube design that is simpler to use and maintain, and compared to a twin tube shock the monotube design will reduce cavitation risks, friction, and oil aeration for a shock that actuates more consistently and freely. An oversized air chamber naturally creates a more linear and planted feel that will keep that rear tire stuck to the ground, and the included volume spacers can fine tune the shock volume in miniscule 1cc increments to really dial in the rear shock's performance.
Further adding to the stout build is a damper shaft that has grown by 1/8" (or 3mm) in diameter; as a bonus, the stout damper shaft will also minimize deflection in the ultra-low friction internals to further improve small bump sensitivity. Add in an enhanced pressure balancing architecture as well as 4-way rebound and compression adjustability with easy to grip external dials, and the result is unprecedented levels of comfort, control, performance, and tunability that will get the most out of a suspension design and push a rider's confidence on the trails to new heights.

Features:
- Distinctive gold Kashima coating creates a durable and ultra slick surface to minimize stiction and for consistent performance between service/maintenance intervals
- Revamped with a robust monotube design that will reduce cavitation risks, stiction, and oil aeration for a buttery smooth shock stroke
- 1/2" (12.7mm) damper shaft is a full 1/8" (or 3mm) larger for improved rigidity, strength, and durability
- Pressure balancing within shock improves bump sensitivity and overall support
- Ultra-low friction internals offers impressive small bump sensitivity for a very responsive shock especially over rapidly changing terrain
- Oversized air chamber results in a more linear spring curve, and 1cc air volume adjustments create ultra precise spring rate tuning
- Optional 2-position firm mode lever quickly adjusts the shock for better climbing or better downhill/all-around performance
- Most sizes have the 2-position lever, but longest length/stroke length models are intended for downhill applications and will not have the 2-position lever
- Variable Valve Control (VVC) provides optimal tuning of high speed compression and rebound circuits to dial in race-level performance for any riding style and/or trail conditions
- 4-way adjustability with easy to grip external dials offer the following adjustability:
- 16 clicks for low-speed compression
- 8 clicks for high-speed compression
- 16 clicks for low-speed rebound
- 8 clicks for high-speed rebound
