Our latest survey shows 56% of buyers prefer Fox Racing Shox forks over other brands.​

For 2019, almost every product in the line was touched but the most significant changes are the following:
  • New 34 Step-Cast 120mm fork
  • New GRIP2 damper for 36 and 40 forks
  • Updated FLOAT X2 Air Sleeve and Bottom Out System
  • Updated GRIP damper
  • DPX2 Remote option
According to our 2018 survey, front and rear suspension is the key factor influencing a buyer's purchase. Bikes have now evolved from our road bike roots and the springy, "take the edge off" bits are now integral to a modern mountain bike's performance. They are now key to comfort and control, safety and fun factor of the system.

Step-Cast

Fox 34 120mm is now available in Step-Cast chassis version.​

34 Step-Cast 120mm travel lightweight forks

Our sport is changing indeed as bikes expand their sweet spot. All Mountain bikes can now hit a bike park one day and be pedaled up two mountain passes the next day. And folks are looking for a trail bike that can be raced sometimes and taken regularly on long, fun rides. Fox's answer to this call is a lightweight 120mm travel fork. And when it comes to light weight, Fox has pushed the envelope with their Step-Cast technology, shaving the chassis in areas not where material is not absolutely required.

How light is it? How about half a pound lighter than the 34 140mm fork. Thus a 3.5 lb fork is available, .3 lb lighter than a 32 long travel, while improving stiffness by 15%.

36 Grip2

The Fox 36 chassis will now be available with the Grip2 damper.​

36 gets the Grip2 damper now as well

The Fox 36 is cool and is perhaps the center of the All Mountain bike revolution. These forks are stiff, capable and controllable. And you know what, they're not that heavy for a downhill capable fork. Tuneability of the RC2 version is a little daunting so Fox has simplified it with the Fit4 damping lever. And now that the even simpler GRIP has ben dialed in, it's made available to the 36 chassis. And don't worry. Fox has learned lessons from the unpopular CTD experience which optimized for the middle 'Trail' mode. This Grip2 damping system works very well for the task at hand, descending.
