Across the range FOX forks have been given a new 'ride' feel. The new valvings have been designed to give better rider feel in all situations, less rider induced feedback, better feel and stability at high speeds, better bump absorption at all speeds and better chassis stability in bumps and under braking. Sounds like a tall order? Fox have been making championship winning suspension across many motorsport and mountain bike disciplines for 34 years! If you trust anyone to deliver on that promise then you should trust FOX...The improvements don't stop with better ride quality and new graphics! FOX are always striving to improve ride quality to stay ahead of the competition so this was a given, throughout the fork range there have been some other very significant changes.

The 36mm forks get an all new lower chassis with an all new 20mm Quick release axle and a lighter, stiffer crown. The combined chassis changes both increase rigidity and reduce weight. The 36 range is now almost a quarter of a pound lighter than last years. The new FOX QR system is a work of art, it offers a genuinely tool free, simple system for wheels removal is stronger than last years set-up 35% in shear and 60% torsional strength increases and... you guessed it, is still 10% lighter than last years bolted axle set-up...
On the 32mm forks there are new lockout levers, graphics, ride tunings and new post mounts and hose guide mounts to make life easier and more compatible with the new hot brake set-ups. On top of this there are all new chassis' for the lightweight F series forks from the feathery light 100s to the all new and 'straight-in-at-lightest-in-class' F120RLC. This fork is going to be THE enduro fork of choice for the 'medium' travel brigade!
