Overview

The Fox DHX2 Factory is a high-performance coil-sprung rear shock designed for aggressive mountain biking, specifically for Downhill (DH) and Enduro racing. DHX2 now utilizes a monotube design to further increase durability, all while preserving its unparalleled 4-way adjustability. More traction. More support. More control. A coil spring paired with ultra low friction internals allows incredible small bump sensitivity, smoothing washboard trail sections with ease.

Features

  • New for 2026 - completely redesigned platform maintaining World Cup winning performance in more durable package.

  • Coil spring paired with ultra low friction internals provides incredible small bump sensitivity smoothing washboard sections.

  • Larger ½" diameter damper shaft increases both strength and durability while pressure balanced architecture increases range.

  • 4-way adjustability with independent high-speed and low-speed compression and rebound tuning for limitless setup options.

  • Suppleness at speed - coil spring delivers unmatched traction and ground-hugging performance that air can't match.

  • Monotube design further increases durability while preserving legendary DHX2 4-way adjustability.

  • Factory Series with premium chrome finish provides class-leading durability and performance.

  • Available in both metric standard and trunnion mount configurations for broad frame compatibility.

  • Coil spring not included - use FOX spring calculator to determine proper spring rate for rider weight and bike setup.

  • Compatible with FOX SLS (Super Light Steel) springs (usually orange, though black is available) which is lighter than standard steel springs, rivaling the weight of titanium at a lower cost.
