The FOX RC-1 V-twin rear shocks are designed to maintain damping control throughout your ride. The internal floating piston is housed in an external reservoir to separate the shock oil from the nitrogen gas so they can never mix like stock shocks. The piggy back reservoir also has adjustments affecting the compression and rebound so you have all the controls you need to dial in the perfect ride

Need to fine tune? Our 24-position compression adjustment on the reservoir allows you to fine tune for the softest ride without bottoming out while the rebound control with 12 distinct clicks can  balance out your spring preload keeping the rear wheel firmly planted no matter how much or how little preload you have on your springs. If that wasn’t enough, our vehicle-specific damping and linear spring rates give you the best in comfort and control for all-day adventures.
