In the pursuit of more performance and chassis stiffness, FOX have increased the stanchion size to 38 mm on the FOX 38, sitting in the middle ground between a FOX 36 and a FOX 40. After thrashing the replacement fork in the bike park there have been no further issues with creaking so, from our experience, it looks like FOX are on top of the issue. The design also uses tuning originally done for Enduro use, which fits the needs of the E-MTB and overall E-Bike rider very well. The arch design of the all-new 36, 38, and 40 is designed to pair perfectly with modern Enduro and Downhill bikes. However, after more time on the FOX 38, we have found that the 200g weight penalty results in significant performance benefits, more grip, more support and improved steering control. The laminated finish also provides excellent scratch resistance.Fits all Fox 36 forks, but this artwork comes stock on … This air sleeve is free to move slightly inside the stanchion, so the piston can maintain a smooth path even if the fork is twisting. This post mount eliminates the need for a caliper adaptor when using the most common 180mm rotor size for forks with these amounts of travel, which saves overall system weight. We found that compared to the FOX 36 on DH trails, we were able to push harder, brake harder and trust rooty landings more. FOX FACTORY 36 Float 27.5 Inches Factory 150 FIT4 3Pos-Adj Black Gloss 15QRx110 Boost Conical Offset 44 mm 2021 Fork Adult Unisex. For 2021, weâve taken GRIP2 to the next level by adding our patented VVC technology to the high-speed compression circuit.VVC is a proprietary variable valve control system that allows for external fine-tuning of suspension performance. Externally, you cannot miss the two air bleeder valves on the back of the FOX 38 lowers, internally, behind these valves small channels allow air to migrate through the fork as it compresses and extends, opening up new volumes. FOX will now only be using tapered steerers on their gravity forks, with no 1 ⅛ steerer option. FOX have also reduced the number of clicks on both the High-Speed Rebound and High-Speed Compression adjusters to 8, to simplify setup.There have also been some big changes inside the FOX 38’s air spring. FOX redefines ride dynamics for ATVs, mountain bikes, motocross, off-road vehicles, snowmobiles, trucks, ... 36 38 40. Pressure build-up in the lower legs dramatically decreases fork performance, preventing full travel from being achieved, and diminishing small bump sensitivity and responsiveness.Stiffness-to-weight is the ultimate metric for bicycle design. With this system, spacing is locked in via a floating sleeve, allowing repeated front wheel removal and reinstallation while maintaining perfect fork alignment. FLOAT DPS. Nonetheless, demonstrating that you can teach an old dog new tricks, he continues to hold his own against the wild and fearless youth. FLOAT DPX2.

We put the issue to FOX for comment, and while they would not comment on the source of the creaking issue, they stated that they would aim to replace the upper steerer/stanchion assembly of any creaking forks within 48 hours under warranty. Now with an 8 position VVC high speed compression adjuster, the decreased range simplifies fork setup. EVOLâs linear spring curve delivers plushness off the top, extra mid-stroke support, and more tunable bottom-out progression.The benefits of EVOL are further enhanced by our new Lower Leg channels and Bleeders, which both function to reduce air pressure captured in the lower legs, allowing the EVOL air spring to operate freely without unintended interference.âFactoryâ says it all â feature-packed and designed to exceed the demands of our Factory-level riders.

Our all-new lower leg design pulls out all the stops, shaving every possible gram while making sure not to compromise stiffness or strength requirements of modern enduro and gravity style riding.Modern frame designs and geometry trends require modern suspension design solutions. One peculiarity we were not expecting was after hard runs, if we pressed the air bleeders, a small volume of oil escaped which made us a little concerned in case it ran down the leg into the brake pads.
