Yes...While pushing the plastic cap off, I knocked one of the springs onto the floor. Took me 30 minutes to find that sucker! Suggest placing all those tiny parts into a magnetic tray for safe storage and work from there. Also, after taking off the plastic cap, I suggest that you initially look at the orientation of the specially shaped shaft to the new blue LSC knob and remember what number on the knob was the default position. On my 2023 Specialized Levo SL, it was the "7" setting. I currently have mine set to "8" now. Hope this helps!
I have a DHX on my new Capra and I just adjusted my LSC w/o the kit. Pop the cap off and twist the metal tear drop piece carefully with the smallest pair of needle nose pliers you have. It's very fiddly to adjust, but if you just want to set it and forget it, you can do w/o the kit since its all sold out everywhere.
@@k1ng617 yeah, I did the same with my float x. Just wouldn’t mind having to knob. But honestly just going to get a vivid and that’ll solve all the problems.
This isn’t all together true. Just adding the knob will not give you enough adjustability to feel a difference. To get full adjustability, you need to upgrade the base valve. This was confirmed both by talking to a Fox shock technician and by installing it myself and getting no adjustability. And, I can feel the slightest adjustment change. Although, it’s worth it to get the pretty blue knob. In the end, I installed a new 2024 and now reliable X2. Its perfection!
After a lot of research into this topic, and speaking with techs at Fox, we have found that the Base Valve tune doesn't depend on whether the LSC knob is present or not. There are some base valve tunes, called Bleed-Valve versions, that have more Low-Speed forgiveness built into them than non-bleed versions. The Non-Bleed base valve tunes will inherently have a more easily perceived feel to the adjustment. And if your shock has a Bleed tune on the BV, then you can certainly change the tune, but this will also change the ride characteristics and overall feel. The bike-specific tunes do not have differences in this base valve tune for Performance vs Factory. Fox has also published an engineering drawing for the NON-LSC version of the shock, showing the 4 positions that the plastic knob can be oriented to to achieve the different LSC adjustment. This further indicates that even the plastic black placeholder cap still adjusts the LSC throughout its range. This is about all I can say that's clear and to the point for this! -Alex
@@TheLostCo the frustrating part is that if you talk to different FOX techs they give different answers. To check this i contacted FOX US east and west coast techsenters directly, and they gave totally different ansvers. One said you do not need to change the Bleed Valve to get LSC, the otherone said you most definetly had to. So pretty hoples..
Hello good afternoon! Do I have a question? I bought a bike that came with the FOX FLOAT Could you tell me if these shock and suspension models are compatible with remote locking on the handlebars? Is it possible to install?
Just did this "hack" Was super easy, got it first time exactly how it was shown in this video no zip ties required. Makes it heaps easier being able to concentrate and not have to do it whilst explaining how it's done 😉 Thank you @Thelostco
Good DIY video. When I pushed the blue knob down, one of the spring and bearing assemblies popped completely out so now the knob is on, but only three of the four assemblies are in place. Do you know the function of these? It still seems to turn fine in both directions. I guess it's possible but I have not been able to remove the blue knob to start over.
OK So I just did this with Fox Float X Performance that came stock on my 2024 Pivot Switchblade. I'm thinking it doesn't really do anything because the Knob simply just spins around. It was actually a pretty easy procedure as shown and I had already pulled the cap off when I first got the bike. I don't recall if the adjuster came to a stop before. Have not ridden with the mod since I just did this
I just ordered two of these kits and should have them in a week or so. I'll let you know how mine works out. By looking at the instructions Fox has on their website for this kit, it appears the cap has a groove cut on the inside that the smaller ball bearing rides in but the groove doesn't go all the way around so the adjuster cap should stop if the cap is fully seated and the ball bearing is in place.
Thank you guys for the nice work. So, if I got it right, at the end you have a fifth ball that you won’t use. Correct? And most important: how many clicks is the standard settings, the one you find defined at the factory? I mean, something like 5 clicks out of 10 or so? Thank you

Hi, thanks for the great videos. Is there a tuning resource for the HSC on these shocks? Mine feels harsh and have trouble getting through the travel as a 145lb rider, despite having only a 0.2 token in there. I suspect the damper is tuned for a heavier rider from the factory. Perhaps you can weigh in. Thanks!
Yeah, you get the pretty knob but sadly, no adjustability. I did just that on my Trance X 29r 1. Rotating the knob has literally zero effect on the LSC. Worth the hassle if you're aiming at a nicer looking setup but that's pretty much it.
Install was easy! I got my cap off with a plastic tire lever, spoon end on the cap lip and kind if leveraged it off the upper shock mount. Popped off first go. The new adjuster is definitely noticable on my shock, I've read others say it does not work without a different internal tune
My float X on my new cube came with this blue dial ony 2023 cube 160 I got on Saturday im trying to work out the suspension settings not sure if it's the same shock it's the gold coated one so suppose you can call it an upgrade kit now since fox doing it themselves on new bikes

Purchased 2 3d printed knobs off eBay for $7 each as I have two of these shocks. Both were crap and fell off instantly. I don’t recommend 3D printed versions.. Found the oem knob in stock from worldwide. The first shock it literally fell in place by pressing down in seconds. The second shock gave me a bit more hassle but overall was pretty simple.
and the big question is, do you really need it ? seems like it is preset in one position. Also, without doing it myself yet, where is the 5th ball - it is unclear to me and what does it do ?
@aidanshmaden69 how do you know if the setting its on matches up with the knob. I've turned my eyedrop many ways one direction no knowing where its supposed to be set from factory
@@WannaJumpBikes The knob can only go on one way. thats why its tear drop shaped. the knob doesnt do anything but make it easier to turn the adjuster shaft.
Not true. There is an arrow on the right side of the shock that is used to match the numbers. You turn the adjuster rod fully closed and line up the lowest number with the arrow before pushing the cap all the way on. The adjuster obviously still works but the numbers are arbitrary without a reference point.

Just and advace take the cap of the shock first then open the bag, easily the screw can fall on the table, shock or cap can slip and say bye to those small parts bearing and springs
I believe if when you install the blue adjuster cap, make sure the small pin holes on the side of the cap align with the 4 pin locations and you'll be able to. You'll just have to "MacGyver" some sort of tool to push the pins in all at once and the cap can be removed.

@@topchoice1621 you’ll see a small “notch” type engraving on the top of the plastic cap, when it’s pointing towards the shock, it’s open. Rotating it clockwise will adjust compression.

Why do these performance versions even exist? They are not cheaper to produce, but are still installed on inexpensive bikes. Why would a bike brand go to Fox and say "I want an OEM version of the Performance Elite that is built exactly the same but with a non-functional LSC adjuster"? This is so stupid.

You should use a small zip tie to push the cylinders in simultanously
Nice trick! We'll try that next time 😀
I was going to suggest the same. Beat me to it! 🙂
I was thinking that same thing
Yep, I use zip tie and it took me exactly 10 minutes for the whole process. Didn’t even take the shock from the bike
Who is this man? Has albert einstine reserected to flex in comment sections
Ah. The sense of relief as the top snaps on. Awesome guys thank you. Fitted and running smooooooth ✌🏻
You can use a plastic tire lever,it will not scratch the shock
You are the only person on the planet that I would allow to work on my bike. Genius!
I just got mine and it took literally 5 minutes to do. Thanks for the video it was super easy to follow
really glad you made this video for the 2022 float X. I couldn't source an OEM fox knob kit, so I bought a 3D printed knob off ebay. Works great!
I would like just to mention, that is very rare for such a dude as Alex to have 5 balls. But its nice touch! ..even the one is a bit smaller
when depressing the pegs, would a small ziptie work to depress all 4 at once? very good walkthru of process.
The zip tie trick worked for me

Serious upgrade here. Will be making sure to add this whenever possible.
Very good tutorial and great added detail thank you so much
Just did this, worked perfectly. Thanks
I used a car interior trim lever to pry off the cap. It's plastic and has 2 area of contact
I like the pliers concept. Slightly grip the cap and pull straight up!
This is great, I was just reading about it last night.
Great video just done mine after watching this 👍
Thank you for the video! Super easy to do🤙

There are no other differences! This is one of the best deals in mountain biking, and we're stoked that Fox made this upgrade possible

Why would a bike brand go to Fox and say "I want an OEM version of the Performance Elite that is built exactly the same but with a non-functional LSC adjuster"? This is so stupid.
Sold out 🙃

This is so easy tf
not worth it!!! I did it.. And it made no difference. In order to get the benefit you need the shim stack ( internals). also the easy way is the use a small zip tie to hold the indents in.
Camera man please increase your f/ stop ffs
Everything in life doesn’t need to be shallow depth of field

But never in stock🤷♂️
Seems like a pretty stupid thing to save money on, the adjuster is there, Fox only saved $ on the knob.
Product segmentation is often somewhat nonsensical, and typically obnoxious
It forces you to spend more money on other things you don’t need.
5 mins in, none the wiser and sick of constant talking. yes i know how to make a workspace, yes i know to check the part is actually in the bag. you dont have to talk at all it dosnt help.
veiwers... skip to 8:30 to begin then hover over skip key, youll need it lots.
There are chapters to help with that.
sad face
out of stock...

Seems really tedious and frustrating to do for such small performance gains on your bike just ride and enjoy what you have on your bike the way it is you don’t have to be an enduro rider all the time 😂😂😂

agreed
