FOX 40 Factory Grip X2 29" Downhill Fork | 203mm Travel, 20x110mm Boost, 52mm Rake


The Ultimate Downhill MTB Fork | Faster, Stronger, More Responsive

Experience the next evolution of downhill performance with the FOX 40 Factory Grip X2 29" fork, engineered for speed, precision, and durability. The MY27 FOX 40 has been completely redesigned from the GRIP X2 damper to the GlideCore air spring, delivering unmatched control, support, and traction on the roughest terrain. Every update is focused on one goal: creating the fastest, most responsive FOX 40 ever built.


GlideCore Air Spring | Smooth, Controlled, Fatigue-Reducing

The GlideCore air spring introduces next-generation vertical and horizontal compliance, allowing the fork to track uneven terrain with precision while reducing rider fatigue. Combined with the MCU bottom-out bumper and the updated GRIP X2 damper, the FOX 40 29" fork provides improved mid-stroke support without compromising the smooth, supple feel FOX downhill riders expect.


GRIP X2 Damper | High-Fidelity Control and Support

The all-new GRIP X2 damper features a redesigned mid-valve piston and updated valve stack. These refinements enhance support, preserve supple feel, and improve overall fork response. Award-winning in design, the GRIP X2 ensures maximum control, minimizing harshness over technical terrain while maintaining exceptional sensitivity for downhill MTB performance.


  • Generatively designed lower legs for optimised stiffness, strength, and weight reduction.
  • Updated GRIP X2 damper offering enhanced support while retaining smooth, controlled motion.
  • Next-generation GlideCore air spring with vertical and horizontal compliance and MCU bottom-out bumper.
  • Improved bleed system and relocated bypass channels (29” version).
  • New FOX 40 Mud Guard with GD4 mount (29” only).
  • Splined cassette tool air-side top cap for simplified setup and maintenance.

Whether you’re racing downhill, tackling aggressive trails, or seeking the ultimate gravity MTB experience, the FOX 40 Factory Grip X2 29" fork delivers unmatched performance, precision, and reliability. Engineered for riders who demand speed, control, and endurance, this fork sets the benchmark for modern downhill mountain biking.
