FOX - 36 FACTORY FORK - GRIP X
PRECISION - TUNED FOR VERSATILITY, BUILT FOR AGGRESSIVE TRAIL RIDING
The latest evolution of the FOX 36 brings big fork energy to Trail and All-Mountain riding, delivering an ideal balance of stiffness, control, and smooth suspension performance. With increased steering precision and a notably supple ride feel, the 36 captures an Enduro-inspired character without the added weight, making it perfectly suited to modern, demanding trails.
Built around a refined standard chassis, the FOX 36 offers confident front-end tracking and responsive handling across varied terrain. Its optimised stiffness profile enhances control at speed while maintaining comfort and compliance over rough ground, giving riders the confidence to push harder on technical climbs and fast descents alike.
At its core is the updated GRIP X damper, engineered to deliver exceptional performance with minimal weight. Designed to approach the ride feel of GRIP X2, it offers impressive sensitivity and control, making it one of the most efficient dampers in its class. Paired with the FLOAT EVOL GlideCore air spring, the fork delivers a supple initial stroke with supportive mid-stroke performance, maximising traction and consistency throughout the ride.
Finished with Genuine Kashima coating for reduced friction and enhanced durability, and equipped with practical features such as bleed valves and optional mudguard compatibility, the FOX 36 Factory Series is built for riders who demand reliability and performance. Available in 150mm or 160mm travel and optimised for modern Trail geometry, it’s a fork designed to handle aggressive riding with ease.

ARCH AGAINST
The arch design wraps around the lowers to increase torsional stiffness of the fork by 20% over the previous 36.
GLIDECORE AIR SPRING
The seamlessly compliant FLOAT Glidecore air spring reduces friction by moving with the fork under dynamic load. The result? Smoother suspension action.
