FOX Shock 2025 Float SL 3-Pos EVOL LV Factory 190x45 mm | Standard
The Fox Float SL is the new ultimate XC shock from Fox.
It is the lightest shock in the portfolio and still offers strong and efficient performance. Special emphasis was placed on improved traction and more consistent damping. This was achieved with a new main piston, valve and IFP (internal floating piston) cartridge. The tried and tested EVOL air spring, here in the Large Volume (LV) version, is of course also used on the Float SL.
The shock can be set in three suspension modes (Open, Medium & Firm) via lever adjustment. Furthermore, the low-friction Kashima coating reduces the breakaway torque.
FACTORY LINE
Factory says it all - full functionality, the best materials and developed to meet the high demands of top riders on the world's trails and race tracks. All products in the Factory line feature the Genuine Kashima Coat for a buttery smooth ride.
EVOL
The air chamber called EVOL with increased volume for the negative air chamber. EVOL is short for "Extra Volume". This adjustment should also have a positive effect on the suspension quality by reducing the breakaway torque of the shock absorber. This leads to better traction and softer response. The Fox Float SL damper should make the rear end significantly more efficient. The Float SL shock is available in the Small Volume (SV) and Large Volume (LV) versions. SV is best suited to XC bikes with shorter travel, while LV is suitable for a wider range of frames.
Metric installation dimensions
By introducing metric installation dimensions, the shock manufacturers want to achieve a standardization of standards. In future, there should no longer be so many different variants. In addition, the aim is to achieve a similar linear gradation of the various length and stroke dimensions as is already the case with suspension forks. Incidentally, these dampers offer more space inside, as the hole spacing is usually slightly larger with the same stroke length. This optimizes function and reliability.
KASHIMA COAT
The Kashima coating for a smooth ride feel is available exclusively from FOX. It offers outstanding overall performance, ensures minimum friction and optimum responsiveness with maximum durability.
