Overview
The FOX FLOAT X2 Live Valve Neo is an air rear shock with wireless Live Valve Neo compression control (Neo Kit sold separately), offered in 7 Metric/Trunnion sizes. US RRP $1,169.
FLOAT X2 is FOX's gravity air shock, optimised for Downhill and Enduro racing. The current generation moves to a monotube chassis for greater durability while keeping its four-way (HSC/LSC/HSR/LSR) adjustability.
FOX sums it up as more traction, more support and more control. It is available in Metric and Metric Trunnion sizes, with a 2-position climb switch or full four-way damping. The Live Valve Neo Kit (sensors, Controller battery and mounting hardware) is sold separately and is required for the shock to work as intended.
