Product Description: New old stock OEM Fox DHX 5.0 coil rear shock for downhill and freeride mountain bikes using a 9.5" eye-to-eye x 3.0" stroke shock size. Includes the rear shock with installed 500 lb x 3.25" external coil spring. Fox part number 966-80-021. The DHX 5.0 was built as a high-performance coil shock platform for aggressive MTB suspension use. Features include external spring preload, oil damping, internal floating piston design, nitrogen-charged damper design, speed-sensitive shim-controlled compression damping, 12-click externally adjustable rebound, ProPedal adjustment, Boost Valve position-sensitive adjustment, and bottom-out adjustment. This is an imperial shock size, not a modern metric shock, so buyers should verify their frame’s required shock size before purchase. This is a new old stock OEM suspension component, not retail-packaged. Shock is sold as shown with the spring installed. The spring has not been removed and no internal service has been performed. Frame bolts and loose/additional bike-specific mounting hardware are not included.
