Description

Please note: Coil Spring not included, must be purchased separately.

The 2026 Fox DHX2 Factory is the latest evolution in coil shock technology, redesigned from the ground up with a monotube chassis to deliver next-level responsiveness, durability, and tunability. Developed alongside the all-new FLOAT X2, this World Cup-ready shock now features pressure balancing, a larger 12.7mm shaft, and updated Variable Valve Control (VVC) for unmatched traction, control, and consistency. Loyal to coil? This is your weapon of choice.

KEY FEATURES

• New Monotube Architecture: Replaces twin-tube design for better pressure balancing, faster damper response, and greater durability.
• Pressure-Balanced System: Reduces cavitation and oil aeration for ultra-consistent damping and improved tire tracking.
• Updated Main Shaft: 12.7mm chromoly shaft with ultra-low friction hard chrome finish for maximum strength and buttery-smooth stroke.
• VVC-Enabled HSR: High-speed rebound now tunable via Fox’s proven Variable Valve Control, matching the 8-click system on GRIP X2 forks.
• 4-Way Adjustability: Fully independent high- and low-speed compression and rebound, plus a firmer lockout via an upgraded climb switch.
• Bottom-Out Control: Redesigned MCU bumper provides increased end-stroke progression to soften harsh landings.

• Finned Inner Body & Steel Outer Body: Boosts rigidity and minimizes thermal hysteresis on long descents.
