Details

Welcome to the coronation. FOX 36: The undisputed all-mountain champion gets a new crown. The FOX 36 benefits from an update in the form of a new crown with updated design and engineering for more steer tube overlap improving durability and maintaining stiffness while dropping 20 grams.

Features

Packed with features to dominate the descents, the 36 answers the call from aggressive all-mountain riders.
Available in both trail-focused GRIP X and gravity-focused GRIP X2 damper options.
120g Lighter than the Grip X2 while maintaining similar traction and predictability.
Firm Mode engages at final click of high-speed compression. Easily accessible when climbing.
3-Way Adjustability (rebound, high/lowspeed compression) for easier set up and trail functionality.

Technology

Grip X

Trail and all-mountain riders no longer need to choose between a descent-focused damper or a lightweight endurance damper. GRIP X exudes exemplary descent performance, refined for less weight, easier set up and an easy access firm mode for pedaling efficiency. Learn more about the new GRIP family.

Kabolt X Axle

A lightweight bolt-on floating axle, the Kabolt X shaves grams while increasing torsional stiffness via a sleeveless, single-sided pinch bolt design. Chassis alignment reduces unwanted friction between the upper and lower fork legs, providing much smoother suspension movement throughout the entire range of travel. The 36 E-Optimized is also available in a convenient tool-free quick-release lever floating axle.

Lower Leg Bleeders & Bypass Channels

Bleeders allow atmospheric pressure equalization at the push of a button. Lower leg bypass channels increase volume to alleviate pressure ramping as the fork moves through its travel. Both result in better fork performance by increasing small bump sensitivity and responsiveness.

Lower Leg Arch

The lower leg design of the 36 E-Optimized shaves every possible gram while maximizing stiffness and strength requirements of enduro and aggressive all-mountain riding.
