Overview

The Gravity FSX 1.0 is a dual full-suspension mountain bike built around an advanced aluminum frame with hydroformed tubes, striking a balance between durability and weight savings. The front end features a SunTour long-travel fork with preload adjustment, while the rear rides on a KS CoilOver shock that is also preload adjustable, giving riders the ability to tune the suspension feel to match their weight and riding style. Together, this setup absorbs bumps and roots on trail rides, reducing fatigue and improving control on uneven terrain.

Shifting duties are handled by a 24-speed drivetrain featuring Shimano ST-EF51 EZ Fire trigger shifters paired with a Shimano Acera or MicroShift rear derailleur and a Shimano FD-M190 or MicroShift front derailleur. Braking comes from Tektro Novela mechanical disc brakes with 160mm rotors, providing reliable stopping power across varying conditions. The 26-inch Maddux DX221 double-wall aluminum rims paired with MultiTread 26x2.1 inch tires round out a capable package for riders looking to explore trails, gravel paths, and mixed terrain without a major financial commitment.
