FLOAT X – The Master of All-Mountain
Whether aggressive Trail or Enduro riding, the advanced damping, consistent performance and superior durability make the FLOAT X the easy choice for any mountain biker in pursuit of descending records. As a representative of the Factory series, this rear shock is of course also packed with features to exceed the expectations of professionals and ambitious amateur athletes. And with the smooth and extremely durable Kashima coating, the versatile air spring damper also knows how to impress visually.

All Terrain Adaptability. Thanks to the tool-free adjustment of compression and rebound, the FLOAT X shock can be quickly and easily adapted to the prevailing terrain and riding conditions. While the 11-step Low Speed Compression dial offers All-Mountain racers the necessary adaptability for descents, the 2-position adjustment lever, which runs on an independent circuit system, provides an easy and convenient on-the-fly solution for climbs.
Well-Rounded Weight & Performance. The length of the Piggyback reservoir is individually adjusted to the respective shock size so that exactly the right air volume is always available for an optimum power-to-weight ratio. By adding the large EVOL air chamber, the ride feel remains constant even on long descents. The result is a competent rear shock that is suitable for the entire range of Trail and All-Mountain sports and fits a variety of frame geometries.
Features of the FLOAT X air shock:
- high-flow piston architecture for even compression and multiple tuning options
- reservoir with secondary compression circuit for improved bump sensitivity, tire grip and descending performance
- reservoir length matched to damper size to reduce weight and for a more precise fit
- extended rebound adjustment range for optimum adaptation to any terrain
- hydraulic top-out function to eliminate vibrations at full rebound
- adjusted air volume for lower average air pressure and wider tuning range
- optimized air valve orientation for easier inflation and greater frame compatibility
- base valve for lower IFP pressures without cavitation
- finely graduated volume spacers for ultra-precise air spring tuning
- MCU bottom-out bumper to maintain progressivity at the end stop
- Firm mode of the 2-position adjustment lever with independent circuit system
- Single-Turn compression adjuster with 12 positions (numbered, adjustable without tools)
Scope of supply:
