Overview

The Gravity FSX 1.0 is a full suspension mountain bike frame designed for riders who want to build up a custom 26-inch trail bike without breaking the bank. Its front triangle is constructed from custom-formed, TIG-welded 6061 aluminum with hydroformed tubes, paired with a CantiBeam link single-pivot rear suspension layout. The frame comes with a KS CoilOver rear shock featuring adjustable preload, allowing riders to tune the suspension feel to their weight and riding style right out of the box.

Practical touches like a replaceable rear derailleur hanger, included headset, and 31.8mm quick-release seatpost clamp reduce the number of additional parts needed for a complete build. The frame accepts only disc brakes and uses standard specifications throughout — 68mm English threaded bottom bracket, 1 1/8-inch head tube, 27.2mm seatpost, and 135mm rear dropout spacing — making it easy to source compatible components from most major brands. While the 26-inch wheel format and single-pivot suspension place this frame in the entry-level category, it offers a viable foundation for a recreational trail bike build at an accessible price point.

Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

  • Includes a KS CoilOver rear shock with adjustable preload, saving the cost of buying one separately.
  • Hydroformed 6061 aluminum front triangle keeps weight reasonable while maintaining stiffness.
  • Replaceable rear derailleur hanger means a crash won't require replacing the entire frame.
  • Headset and seatpost clamp included out of the box reduce total build cost.
  • Standard 135mm rear spacing and 68mm bottom bracket shell make sourcing compatible parts straightforward.

👎 Cons

  • Limited to 26-inch wheels, which have become less common as the industry has shifted to larger wheel sizes.
  • Listed item weight of 45 pounds suggests a heavy frame, which will affect climbing performance.
  • Single-pivot suspension design offers less pedaling efficiency and bump sensitivity compared to multi-link designs.
  • No information provided on frame sizing options, which may limit fit for different rider heights.
  • Does not include a fork, bottom bracket, or seatpost, so total build cost adds up quickly.
