Fox Float X2 vs Float DPX2 (What's Different & What's Better?)

Fox Float X2 or Float DPX2 - Which would you pick? Let us know!

Bro I ride a Hardtail 🥲 and will never be able to afford on of those shocks😭

Nerdy ? An insult by idiots aimed at people that actually do understand the details. Nice. Narcissist? Too strong?

Simple, that would be you right? Or for people that have bikes that don’t accept the x2 or don’t need that much travel and capacity in the can.

If your on an xc bike you likely won’t need the range the x2 has unless you need the high and low speed damping adjustment. But then you’ll likely need a longer travel/enduro bike anyway

What a melon head 😂

Great vid, you don’t find this very often.

A channel named WORLDWIDE Cyclery is using retard units to tell an international audience how much travel a shock has?

ok, this is a perfect video for my situation! so, I have a stock Release 2 from Diamondback and it comes with a fox DPS 200x57. it rides great and feels great but I want more. I love the tun-ability of the float x2 and the dpx2. but this is where the big question I have is and haven't been able to get a good answer from any pros as of yet, so WC and anyone else out there help me out please and thank you! both these shocks come in 200mm, so they will fit! however, the DPX2 is 200x57 while the Float X2 is 200x51. based on this video, it sounds like the Float X2 is the better ride of the two, but I would have -6mm or 1/4" of compression on the shock of the Float X2. this is both good and possibly bad; the good is that, because of the shorter compression, the wheel will have less distance to travel to return to its neutral position, thus faster rebound; the bad is that I might bottom out more often as a result of the shorter compression (as far as I know). the DPX2 will maintain the same compression and travel as my stock shock while still being an upgrade but I won't have the same amount of tun-ability or suppleness of the float X2. so given this knowledge, I feel like despite losing 1/4" of compression, it seems like the Float X2 is a far greater improvement over my stock DPS shock. what would you say WC? any pros think my logic is on track?

me watching this knowing I only own, and am about to buy another hardtail

Commencal ships their 160mm Enduro bike with the fucking dpx2

I know this because I just put mine together...

I bought a dpx2 yesterday after watching this video. Extremely happy with my purchase after my first ride!

hi ther
Do you think the shock absorber will fit a Specialized SX 26 " bike ???
thank you

I am wondering what that computerscreen in the back is all about

DPX2 for the average rider: cheaper, lighter and not complicated as the DPX2.

How does the x2 jump compared to dpx2?

For the first time but i have a giant full suppention

Im going to trail

Which is better a rockshox super deluxe or dpx2? Thank you!

Another great review Jeff!

Got myself a dpx2 performance on my 160mm enduro bike. Haven't ridden it yet. Honestly as long as it fits I sits.

hi guys got the DPX2 love it,,cheers for the review 😁👍

Me: fully rigid bike. Me: hummmmm, what should I get DX or DPX2. Hummmmmmmm

lost me at 600 bucks

Is the rockshox vivid basically rockshox' X2? I have never seen a bike equipped with that

What about the SB5.5? Literally falls between the 130 and the 150.

Can I put x2 on Hightower.

How to check the compatibility, am I right to say if eye to eye length is same as the one that comes from factory then it is compatible?

Fox is good shocks but had to send my back for service too many times for leaking

Don’t hate me for loving rock shox more

I ride dpx2 with 150 of travel and 160 upfront on the 36 elite

If you need more information for the shock/fork from Fox, take the 4 digit/letter code on them, and then head over to Ride Fox. Once there search under tech help, bike, and then enter your code. Once entered Fox will give you all the info about your suspension product, and give you tech info for setup. Super easy for noobs until they get experience. Great video by the way.

What kind of vise stand and vise do you have in the corner? Thanks!

“You almost never bottom out on the x2”
In that case can somebody help me because with my tiny 50kg weight, compression turned in too stiff for my weight, sag too stiff for my weight and 2 volume spacers I’m still bottoming out relatively often. Is this an issue and do you guys know how to fix it?!
Loving the content!

So nobody’s gonna talk about the buy in the background sticking his tongue out

I think float x2 because I own it and I’m not buying a new shock

the GOD DAMN picture in the computer wallpaper got me laughing 😂😂😂😂

I really like the Dpx2 but it does not fit my 2019 Stumpjumper Comp Alloy 27.5 which has 210x52.5mm 🤦‍♂️

im a guz who loves downhil, bikeparks and huge jumps but i dont know if the x2 will actuallz fit on mz bike. also it kosts a lot more. Wich one should i go with?

Where can I buy x2 in Cambodia

Jeff I'm building a megatower, I have the rockshox ultimate, but I am 250 with gear and I like a kinda poppy bike. What would you recommend for that bike? Or add the megneg? Thanks for your time

I have the Trek Slash 9.7 with the Rockshox shock. It's a very specific size (230x57.5mm) but only have the Float X2. I feel like I like that more but I need them to have the DPX2 so I can see the difference. I can't find it! Please help!

My 160mm travel FS 29er has a DPX2 on it and it feels amazing!!

Which shock is better for a heavy guy? Riders close to 300lbs or more?

Building a 2017 CC Santa Cruz 5010 I long shocked the front with a 160mm fox 36 as for the rear I’m still trying to decide either one of these. Traditionally it was a smaller travel bike but now it’s 160 at the front as well as the riding I plan to do with it , I’m leaning more towards the x2 !

X2 all the way

Sort your hair out mate

Awesome content 🍿

I’m considering upgrading from a 2015 Monarch plus rc3. Was leaning towards a DVO topaz t3. But also considering the DPX2. Which is better?

You couldn't get a more informative and succinct comparison. Great review. I'd prefer a dpx2 on my Whyte S-150 for simplicity and weight, but I'll have to stick with the Rockshox Deluxe until the prices come down to under £400 to the UK.

I have the dpx2 on my enduro bike and I think that it handles big hits better than the x2. Just my opinion

Anyone else just staring at the computer in the left
