Fox has unveiled the Float X2 Live Valve Neo, a cutting-edge rear shock that integrates their advanced Live Valve Neo technology into the gravity-focused Float X2 platform. This innovation offers riders automatic compression adjustments, enhancing both climbing efficiency and descending performance.
Live Valve Neo Technology
The Live Valve Neo system employs wireless sensors attached to the front and rear brake calipers to monitor terrain and rider input. These sensors communicate with the shock, enabling it to firm up during pedaling and open up when encountering bumps, all within 1/70th of a second. This rapid response ensures optimal suspension performance across various trail conditions. (blisterreview.com)
