Neo debuted in August 2024, with the Transfer Neo wireless dropper post, giving riders an ultra-fast response time between pressing the lever and micro-adjusting the height of their dropper. But the true potential of Neo was realized when we applied it to wireless electronic suspension.
The only thing worse than bad suspension is unpredictable suspension. Your shock shouldn’t have to rely on extensive or historical power input data to predict how you’re riding. Once installed and set up, it should act exactly the way you want, when you want, with no noticeable lag.
What separates Live Valve Neo from other electronic suspension systems? It’s how it helps you ride faster in every situation, whether climbing, traversing or descending. When commanded by the sensors, the shock will switch between two positions—Open and Firm—in as little as 1/70th of a second.
Live Valve Neo does not employ a third “Pedal” mode, which some riders may perceive as necessary when climbing technical trails, or pedaling through low angle technical sections. Live Valve Neo can switch between Open and Firm so fast that a “middle ground” setting is not necessary. You get full support of Firm mode exactly when you need it, and the plushness of Open mode exactly when you want it.
Three elements work together to achieve Live Valve Neo’s speed advantage:
The ultra-fast switch between Open and Firm Mode lets you experience the efficiency of riding a hardtail, but only when you want it. This allows riders to maintain momentum and speed easier than ever before, in all sorts of riding scenarios. Some examples:
Live Valve Neo is always working in the background whether you are climbing, traversing or descending. But how it operates in each of those scenarios is different. This is where tunable algorithms—what we refer to as Tunes—come into play.
Each Live Valve Neo Tune consists of three states: Climb, Flat and Descend. The Fork Sensor detects the angle of your bike and toggles between these three states.
While a Live Valve Neo shock will default to Firm mode in all riding scenarios, having specific states within each Tune means the system can bias towards support during climbs or traverses, but open more easily (and stay open) on longer descents.
Each of the above states has a force threshold required to open the shock, and a timer for exactly how long it should stay open. If another bump (that exceeds the threshold) is detected during the Open Timer, the timer resets and your shock will stay open. If no significant bump is detected before the Open Timer expires, the shock reverts to Firm.
To summarize, as you ride, the Fork Sensor determines the Tune state (Climb, Flat or Descend) and the Controller instantly updates the bump thresholds and Open timers of your shock accordingly.
Neo-equipped shocks will ship with five Tunes designed by FOX to work for most riders. These Tunes are recipes our engineers created for excellent on-trail performance from our Live Valve Neo shocks, for any rider weight, in any trail region:
Receive your selected shock with built-in Controller, and a FOX battery block installed in place of the rechargeable Live Valve Neo battery.
The rechargeable battery, sensors and charger required to operate the Live Valve Neo system must be purchased in a separate kit.
DHX Live Valve Neo shocks do not include a spring.
Bump sensors are understood to be compatible with current Shimano and SRAM production hydraulic MTB brakes. Examples of current production brakes are as follows: XTR M9100, Deore XT M8100, SLX M7100, Deore M6100, Saint M82, Magura MT7, and TRP DHR Evo.
