Suspension

Competition drives innovation, and as cross-country athletes and course designers push the boundaries of lightweight components, 32 Step-Cast Performance rises to meet the demand. The crown is designed to increase stiffness to the same level as the trail-proven 34. The distinct shape of the Step-Cast chassis uses a narrow stance to save weight and the step design makes room for the spokes and brake rotor. - GRIP Push-Lock damper features 3-position settings for easy setup and firm mode for pedaling efficiency (Remote sold separately) - The rear arch matrix was generatively designed to increase stiffness by 40% while minimizing weight - Premium 7000 series aluminum crown supports angled upper tubes, rather than relying on extra material to achieve overall rake and steering stiffness - Kabolt SL thru-axle drops an additional 12g over the standard Kabolt axle by eliminating the weight of an axle nut and decreasing the flange diameter - Fitted with the proven and reliable FLOAT EVOL air spring - Black anodized upper tubes for added durability

XC courses are more technical than ever with the latest longer-travel XC bikes more than capable. With a stout full-width stance, increased travel and tire clearance, and svelte sub-1500g weight, the new 34 SL Factory suspension fork is built to exceed the demands of modern XC and downcountry. Features Kashima Coating on upper tubes for added smoothness and durability - Full-width 34mm chassis with aggressive generative design-aided arch and crown for 17% increase in stiffness and 10mm increase in travel over 34 SC, at only 3% weight increase - 20mm increased bushing overlap for reduced friction and greater stiffness with no increase in axle-to-crown length (compared to 34 SC) - Longer air spring than 34 SC with larger negative volume mirrors 34 LT’s supple initial stroke and 34 SC’s supportive mid and end stroke - Double-butted damper side stanchion for weight savings - Lower Leg Bypass Channels relocated 90° inboard for improved bushing loading and reduced dynamic friction

Engineered for unforgiving descents, technical race lines, and the world's most demanding riders, FOX introduces Factory 36 Podium Inverted, a new benchmark in single crown fork performance. Delivering exceptional fore-aft rigidity, ultra-smooth travel, and DH-style confidence, Podium brings an unfair advantage to enduro racers and all-mountain riders alike. Podium is designed to be ridden like a downhill fork. No barriers. No hesitation. Complete confidence that your front wheel will hold the line, no matter how fast—or how big—you push it. All this while keeping your bike in a familiar range of travel and geometry in a single crown package. Fox designed this inverted fork to get the absolute maximum performance out of the industry leading GRIP X2 damper, with every possible gain for smoothness in its travel and confidence-inducing fore-aft rigidity in the chassis. Welcome to the Unfair Advantage. Welcome to Podium. - To take full advantage of a damper’s capabilities, FOX engineers pursued the optimal design to provide ultra-low friction under load by turning the traditional fork design on its head with an inverted chassis, providing unmatched damping sensitivity when combined with the award-winning Grip X2 damper - At the core of Factory 36 Podium Inverted is uncompromising fore-aft stiffness made possible by oversized 47mm upper tubes and a generatively-designed crown structure, allowing riders to hold precise lines with total confidence—even at downhill speeds - To further increase torsional stiffness, FOX replaced the standard 15mm axle with a steel 20 x 110mm Boost DH axle, distributing forces more evenly across the lower leg interface - 175mm of bushing overlap is 32% more than the 38, and even 7% more than the FOX 40, to deliver an unbeatable chassis stiffness and reduced friction under heavy loads - The FLOAT EVOL GlideCore air spring, designed with built-in lateral and axial compliance, allows the spring to flex with the fork under high loads, reducing binding and stiction for a smoother ride feel, improved small bump sensitivity, and better control when the terrain gets wild - Specially tuned GRIP X2 damper, known for its four-way adjustability and race-proven control, offers enhanced compression damping to match the fork’s reduced friction and slightly softened rebound to balance lower unsprung mass, resulting in a damping curve designed for aggressive descending, enduro competition, and eMTB domination - Full oil immersion keeps seals constantly lubricated while gravity helps shed contamination and reduce friction - Kashima Coating on lower tubes for added durability
