Engineered for 29-inch wheels and featuring GRIP X damping technology, this fork offers a perfect balance between descending prowess and pedaling efficiency. With a FLOAT EVOL air spring, updated chassis, and 20% greater torsional stiffness than its predecessor, the FOX 36 is built to handle fast descents, rough terrain, and long days in the saddle.
Top Features of the FOX 36 GRIP X Factory Fork
Advanced GRIP X Damper: Combines the control of the GRIP X2 with lighter weight and simplified setup. Features 3-way adjustment: rebound, low-speed compression, and a firm pedaling mode, ideal for technical climbs and switchbacks.
FLOAT EVOL Air Spring: Redesigned for smoother performance under load. The new compliant air spring decouples the stanchion from the air shaft to reduce resistance on big impacts and maintain plush sensitivity throughout travel.
20% Increased Torsional Stiffness: New arch design and increased bushing overlap give the FOX 36 near the stiffness of the FOX 38, while weighing 275g less, the perfect blend of strength and agility.
Optimised Bushing Overlap: Added 30mm of overlap increases fork stability and reduces friction during side-loading, for smoother action through rough terrain and high-speed hits.
Inboard Bypass Channels: Repositioned for reduced wear and enhanced oil circulation, these channels enhance small-bump sensitivity while improving long-term durability.
Kashima Coating: Signature gold stanchions deliver ultra-low friction, exceptional durability, and a premium look.
