FIRST LOOK! FOX’S LIGHTER AND STRONGER 36 MOUNTAIN BIKE FORK

FOX’S LIGHTER AND STRONGER 36 MOUNTAIN BIKE FORK

We can still remember the first time we rode a Fox 36 fork many years ago. At the time it was incredible to get that kind of gravity friendly performance out of a single crown fork. Years later not much has changed. Even though the newer 38 has taken over for heavy hitting enduro racing, the 36 is still one of the best all around mountain bike forks on the market. It is light and capable enough to cover everything from trail to enduro riding and anything in between.

The 36 just got even better with the introduction of the updated 36 that’s 20 grams lighter while even stronger and more durable thanks to an increase in steerer tube overlap with the new crown design. Although we have not experienced it ourselves we have heard from others who have had creaking at the crown and steerer junction so this should address that. The rest of this great fork remains the same. Weight starts at 4.28 lb (1942g) for a 29″ 160mm travel version with KaboltX axle.
