Overview

The Gravity FSX 1.0 is a 26-inch dual-suspension mountain bike frame built from custom-formed, TIG-welded 6061 aluminum with hydroformed tubes in the front triangle. Its CantiBeam Link single-pivot suspension design pairs with an included KS coilover rear shock featuring adjustable preload, allowing riders to dial in sag and firmness to match terrain and riding style. Disc brake mounts on both the front and rear ensure compatibility with modern braking systems for reliable stopping power on steep descents and wet trails.

Practical details make the FSX 1.0 a solid foundation for a custom build: a standard 1⅛-inch head tube accepts widely available headsets, the 68mm English-threaded bottom bracket shell works with most cranksets, and the 27.2mm seatpost diameter and 135mm rear spacing keep parts sourcing straightforward. A replaceable rear derailleur hanger means a trail mishap won't retire the frame, and the included 31.8mm quick-release seatpost clamp rounds out the package. Available in four sizes from 15 to 21 inches, this frame gives riders the flexibility to build a personalized full-suspension mountain bike around proven aluminum construction.

Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

  • Custom-formed TIG-welded 6061 aluminum construction is lightweight yet strong for trail riding.
  • Adjustable KS coilover rear shock is included, saving the cost of purchasing suspension separately.
  • Hydroformed 6061 aluminum frame tubes provide a strong yet lightweight foundation for custom builds
  • Multiple frame sizes from 15 to 21 inches accommodate a wide range of rider heights
  • Replaceable rear derailleur hanger extends the frame's service life after crashes or impacts.
  • Available in four sizes (15, 17, 19, 21 inches) for a wide range of rider heights.
  • Replaceable rear derailleur hanger extends the frame's lifespan by allowing easy replacement after impacts
  • Includes seatpost clamp and headset, reducing the number of additional parts needed to start building
  • Standard 135mm rear spacing and 68mm English-threaded bottom bracket ensure broad parts compatibility.

👎 Cons

  • 26-inch wheel compatibility limits upgrade options as the industry has largely shifted to 27.5 and 29-inch standards
  • Frame only — wheels, fork, drivetrain, brakes, seatpost, and bottom bracket must all be sourced separately.
  • Disc brake mounts only, so existing rim brake wheelsets and calipers cannot be used.
  • Disc brake mounts only, with no rim brake option for riders who prefer or already own rim brake components
  • Bottom bracket, seatpost, fork, wheels, drivetrain, and brakes must all be purchased separately, adding significant cost
  • Designed for 26-inch wheels only, limiting compatibility with the now more common 27.5 or 29-inch standards.
  • Single-pivot suspension design is simpler and less tunable than multi-link platforms.
  • 135mm rear spacing is a standard quick-release dimension that does not support modern thru-axle hubs
  • Coil-over rear shock is heavier and less adjustable than air shocks found on higher-end frames
