Boy does it feel like a long time coming - Fox are back in Motocross!

Fox Racing Shox started in the MX industry over 25 years ago with the revolutionary Fox Twin AirShox. Mono shock systems followed, Factory Forx followed that and AMA and World Championship trophies swelled the cabinet! Since then Fox Racing Shox have been making more noise in 'off-road truck' racing, Paris Dakar, snowmobile, ATV and mountain bike suspension with Forays into NASCAR and Superbike racing along the way...

It was always part of the plan to return to their roots in motocross and offer a suspension solution for the discerning customer, this has been a work in progress for the last few years. Pit bike shocks, Schoolboy motocross shocks, replacement cartridges for the schoolboy classes and now finally when the new technologies have been tested and raced in the heat of AMA SX and MX battle the new, revolutionary RC3!

There is no other suspension company in the world that has engineers suspending vehicles in as many classes, so it will come as no surprise to learn that the cross-fertilisation of ideas between departments has allowed Fox's MX engineers to come up with some truly novel solutions in the RC3 design, 'real solutions' to 'real-life' issues... On top of the technologies that already exist like the sweet Dual Speed Compression adjuster and 'off-road truck' inspired damping piston design, the new piston and body coatings and DLC coating on the main shaft help produce a friction free, fade free ride. The FAST adjust preload system allows you to adjust preload with one turn of a 4mm allen key, no more punches, no more battered lock rings on a brand new bike! Unlike other allen key lockring systems, the Fox system allows the allen key locking system to remain in the same place allowing FAST, simple, fine adjustments on the load bearing threads.

Last but not least the new Bottom Out Control is an industry first, adjustable, hydraulic bottom out system. A 24 click adjuster allows the rider to separate 'mid stroke' compression needs from 'end stroke' damping needs adding from 800lbs to as much as 1400lbs of damping force at the maximum setting during the last 20mm of the shock stroke, all at the click of a screwdriver!
