The Fox DHX2 Factory Rear Shock represents a leap forward in mountain bike suspension technology. Designed with a completely new chassis and damper, it offers enhanced tunability and a smoother ride quality that ensures you stay in control on the most demanding downhill trails. The innovative MCU bumper provides superior progressivity and end-stroke control, helping to absorb the harshest impacts with ease. Whether you’re racing or tackling technical terrain, this shock is engineered to deliver peak performance from the first ride.
Built with precision, the DHX2 features an improved bearing ratio for metric sizes and detents on the spring collar to prevent loosening under light preload conditions. Its high-flow main piston and ultra-low friction damper shaft finish reduce resistance, allowing for more responsive and consistent damping. The linear damping system increases control while decreasing harshness, delivering a balanced and comfortable ride. Additionally, the steel outer body and finned inner body improve structural rigidity and reduce hysteresis, ensuring durability and reliable performance over time.
The shock also offers advanced adjustability, including matching 8-click high-speed compression (HSC) and high-speed rebound (HSR) adjustments compatible with Grip2 forks and X2 shocks. The inclusion of Variable Valve Control (VVC) enhances high-speed rebound tunability, giving riders precise control over suspension feedback. An independent firm mode circuit provides a firmer lockout than previous models, while the reduced length reservoir ensures better fitment on a wide range of frames. The Fox DHX2 Factory Shock is the ultimate upgrade for riders seeking smooth performance, superior control, and race-ready reliability.
Is the DHX2 Factory Shock compatible with all mountain bikes?
The DHX2 is designed primarily for downhill and aggressive trail bikes with compatible frame mounts. It may not fit all bike models, so checking frame compatibility is essential before purchase.
How does the MCU bumper improve performance?
The MCU bumper enhances progressivity and controls bottom-out, providing smoother absorption of harsh impacts and better overall suspension feel on rough terrain.
