For anyone in the UK (and possibly beyond) that's interested in an X2 for their Enduro

http://www.mojostore.co.uk/2016-float-x2-f-s-215-x-57-enduro-strut-mount-c2x18787799

TF Tuned also have the Ohlins

http://www.tftuned.com/ohlins-ttx-22-m-coil-shock-14-series/p3290

Plus some Cane Creek options

http://www.tftuned.com/cane-creek-double-barrel-air-climb-switch/p3032

http://www.tftuned.com/cane-creek-dbinline/p3046



Personally I've gone for a Bikeyoke and a Vivid R2C coil. I'm a solid 200lbs and feel much better on a coil shock

I have a 2013 stumpy 29er FSR Comp and I want to replace the rear shock. There is any issue if I fit a 197x47 instead of 194x48 (current shock)?

Thanks.

NEW! CUSTOM FITTED FOX DHX2 FOR STUMPJUMPERS AND ENDUROS!
This is my favorite shock for my S-WORKS Enduro, I’ve had just about all of them. with my New fitment process you can bolt a Fox DHX2 into your Enduro or your stumpy. and yes, i know they don’t use the same shock… Prices are the same as Fox charges for a new DHX2 $595+$50 FSR fitment+Shipping to 84047

@visciouscyclewerx Since you are able to fit a DHX2 to a Stumpy, can the dame be done for an X2 or is the air can too big?

How do you get the dhx2 to fit the enduro? Does Fox not offer a way to mount the coil option to the enduro? I know they have the specialized fit for the Float X2

No, fox doesn’t have an option available, I’m a machinist, so i built the new lower mount to bolt up to your stock equipment

Sorry, follow-up question. The air can/reservoir of the X2 can clear the Stumpy frame? Someone on the forums mentioned that an X2 Is not compatible with a Stumpy frame due to frame contact around the air can. What do you charge for the conversion?

Hmm, I would have definitely suspected the X2 not fitting over the Float X, but whatever man I wouldn't put a Float X on her anyways. Stumpys have a weird 197mm x 48mm shock measurment, do you just take a 200mm x 50mm and slap that bad boy on there?

Thanks for all the info btw!

PM sent about the DHX2 for a stumpy.

I noticed fox doesn't make a 2" stroke DHX2. are you shortening the stroke on them as well?

Thanks, PM me back, ready to pay right now Smile

Are you selling the conversion hardware or only complete shock?

Just bought a stumpy and have a DHX2 from a different bike. Do you sell a mount kit?

If you wan to send your shock to me i can convert it for you, its far more than just a mount, it needs internal limiting, external bumpstops, the mount, and the damper re-bled, just attempting to getting the eyelet off would ward most off the challenge. if you want to go this route i can convert your shock for $149 + shipping

Finally got the time to build my DHX2 conversion so I finally got the bikeyoke.com mount off my Enduro
