Introduction

X-Fusion is set to take the mountain biking world by storm with their upcoming release of the Rezza XC suspension system, featuring both a cutting-edge air-sprung fork and an innovative inline shock. Designed to cater to the needs of cross-country riders, the new Rezza will offer adjustable travel ranging from 100mm to 130mm, combined with a remote lock-out feature that utilizes X-Fusion's novel Q-Flip 3 stacked lever assembly.

Specifications

Claimed as their lightest XC fork yet, the Rezza weighs in at 1,520 grams. While it's not the lightest on the market—losing out slightly to the 35mm stanchion RockShox SID at 1,480 grams—its weight is still impressive for a cross-country fork that promises not to break the bank. The exact retail price is yet to be announced but is expected to compete with offerings from established brands like Fox and RockShox, similar to how the Vengeance 38 positions itself against the Fox 38 and RockShox Zeb.

Adjustable Travel

One standout feature of the Rezza fork is its adjustable travel, allowing riders to effortlessly switch between 100mm, 110mm, 120mm, or 130mm without the hassle of changing the air spring. This adaptability makes it an ideal choice for cyclists looking for versatility, whether they plan to tweak settings for different trails or alternate the fork between multiple bikes. The design includes a single positive air spring paired with a self-equalizing negative air chamber.

Damper Features

On the damper front, the Rezza utilizes an updated version of the Fine Cut damper, which debuted with the Vengeance fork. Riders will find a three-position compression damping system that can be adjusted via the remote lock-out, alongside adjustable rebound damping for a customized experience. The fork geometry includes a 44mm offset and features direct-mount ports for a brake caliper compatible with a 180mm rotor, while the magnesium lowers provide a sturdy yet lightweight construction. Furthermore, the arch incorporates a threaded insert, allowing for securely attaching a bolt-on fender—a nice touch for those navigating muddy trails.

The Rezza Shock

The Rezza shock complements the fork, evolving from the well-regarded O2 model. Emphasizing its XC credentials, the in-line shock boasts three compression damping settings. Riders will be able to choose between the Rezza RLXR, which features dials for remote lock-out adjustments, and the simpler Rezza RLX, which offers a straightforward lever for setting the damper. With an impressively light claimed weight of around 250 grams, it will be compatible with both standard and Trunnion mounting styles.

Conclusion

While the excitement builds, enthusiasts will have to wait until 2026 for these groundbreaking products to hit the market. Keep your eyes peeled for further updates, and prepare to elevate your cross-country riding experience with the Rezza!
