Fox Suspension 36 Performance Elite All-Mountain Fork (Matte Black) (44mm Offset) (GRIP X | Kabolt-X) (160mm) (2027) (29″) (15 x 110mm) (Tapered)

Fox 36 Performance Elite All-Mountain Fork Description:

The Fox 36 Performance Elite All-Mountain Fork delivers incredible all-mountain performance and at a more budget friendly price. A versatile GRIP X damper utilizes revamped valving for better feel, quicker response time, and less noise; additionally, this damper weighs approximately 120 grams less than the GRIP X2 damper and has a firm mode that improves pedaling efficiency when going uphill or launching a sprint while retaining outstanding descending performance. Stiff lowers with a bunch of bushing overlap, a slick black anodized coating on the 7000-series aluminum alloy stanchions, GlideCore air spring technology, and low friction seals combine to eliminate a sticky feeling fork throughout its travel and improves handling precision especially over tricky, off-camber trails. With a great balance of stiffness, quick responses, and smooth performance, this fork will be a great looking performance upgrade for any trail-slaying machine.

Features:

• Redesigned lowers have 30mm more bushing overlap and a wraparound brake arch with cutouts which adds significant torsional stiffness for precise bike control and handling
• GRIP X damper weighs approximately 120 grams lighter than the GRIP X2 damper, and has revamped valving that allows the fork to respond faster to bumps, provides better ride feel, and with less noise
• Firm mode prevents the fork from bobbing and squatting during climbs and sprints so more of the riders energy is used to put power to the pedals
• Float EVOL GlideCore Air Spring with large cross-section O-rings moves with the fork under dynamic load to reduce stiction and produce a much smoother suspension travel
• Adjustable high/low-speed compression and rebound make for easy setup and trail tuning
• Low friction seals and a slick black anodized finish on the 7000-series aluminum upper tubes (otherwise known as the stanchions) provides a silky smooth suspension action throughout the available travel even over rough, off-camber terrain
• Lower leg inboard bypass channels improve small bump sensitivity and reduce friction by moving oil out of the fork’s load path
• Lower leg bleeders allow for atmospheric pressure equalization providing more usable travel and better small bump sensitivity
• Air spring top cap can be removed using a common cassette tool to make it easier to install or remove volume tokens
• Integrated mudguard mount on the backside of the brake arch (mudguard sold separately)
• Kabolt-X floating axle adds considerable stiffness for great bike control and handling, and as a bonus it puts the wheel exactly in the same place after the axle is secured so disc brake rotors will not rub in the brake calipers
