Gravity FSX 26 inch Wheel Aluminum Disc Brake Full Dual Suspension Bike Frame with Rear Shock

I was shocked that for this price the frame came with the front fork, bottom bracket, and headset bearings. I used this frame to build a bike out of old 26” parts from a dual suspension bike that was too small for me. I built this bike from parts I was going to trash. I put a BBS02 mid-drive motor on it and 10ah battery (which is now mounted beneath my seat). I have an awesome mountain ebike now that can handle anything. Coolest project. The seller was able to accommodate a last minute frame size change for me. I would say I’m a very happy customer. The only issue is something loose inside the frame tube that rattles. I can’t get it out, so I’m going to pump some foam inside a tiny hole to stop the rattle. I won’t reduce the score for that based on price. I hope they can offer the 27.5” version too (unless this 26” frame is same as 27”?). I was able to easily fit a 27.5” wheelset on front, so maybe same.

The media could not be loaded. Like I said In my video.I like this bike. I like it a lot. That's why I have 2 of them. I understand things can happen and over looked at manufacturing like the down tube being bent. Because it's not like that on the first Gen fsx 1.0! That is/was my only concern with it. Bit after everything was taken care of I ended up with the same frame that I sent back and got 100% full refund because the seller was not willing to work things out. Since then I have completely rebuilt this bike 2c now just making upgrades have since put hydraulic brakes on and currently getting ready for the new new downhill inverted air forks with a air/coil rear shock and a dropper post. Already have went complete sealed bearings in the neck, crank, and wheels with extra wide handle bars single gear crank thanks to Bucklo's rear derailure and thumb shifter thanks to Microshift, BBR Tuning for the 3 spoke mag wheels (black) sealed bearings headset Bucklo's, hydraulic brakes Bolany, 70 degree stem handlebars and sealed bearing crank set w/o single gear, and 160mm rotors thanks to Dymoece. The air/coil rear shock thanks to DNM, and the new front forks and dropper post will be added soon after install and test ridings are all complete. And I also have recently learned that Gravity Bikes has released a Gen 3 fsx 1.0 with Microshift drive train so am thinking about?

Mounted 2 48v Batteries and 2 48v 1000w wheel hubs to this frame and as a 185lb rider the stock suspension is great. Just a small sag when sitting and smooth as butter when riding. Frame would be heavy for a regular MTB but is robust for a Ebike frame. Used a Grin V6 Torque Arm for the front hub. Of you are making an Ebike this is a great way to start, it's cheap because it's too heavy for a good regular MTB snatch this up! I may just order a second to have around TBH.

This thing is lightweight and built tough. I'm a big guy at 6' 2" and 220 lbs. The 17" frame is perfect. The front fork is a little stiff for my size and weight, but that's easily fixed with adjustments.I have the perfect ebike for commuting to and from work and the odd errand.

I can't believe the quality of this frame for the price. It came with the forks, bottom bearings and shock. And a quality paint job. It worked perfect for an ebike that I built.

Pros: light weight. Waaaayy lighter than expected. Comes with pre greased bearings for front fork. (didn't need the fork) CHEAP. Doesn't cost a fortune. Comes with crank and bearings installed. comes with spacers for mounting handlebar.Cons: The aluminum frame is so light and thin it can bend with enough lateral force. The rear derailer mount was damaged beyond repair due to rough shipment. Doesn't come with bolts to hold your pedal arms to the crank, and they aren't exactly standard. Doesn't fit standard seat posts. No room for a standard front derailer. (ended up going fixed gear for my ebike build). I only recommend this frame if you have a lot of spare time and like to "make things work". It's what I had to do with this frame, but it wasn't enjoyable. Will see how this thing holds up against some serious Ft Lbs of torque, and probably see about a different full suspension frame.

I know what I used it for isn’t the intended purpose, but this frame is very sturdy and can take a beating. I’m 6’ 240lbs and the suspension doesn’t bottom out on me. I would highly recommend this frame to anyone looking for a great frame that you can really do anything with. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase and I’ll definitely buy more in the future

Easy assembly. Looks good.
