The Fox Racing Shox 34 is the hard charging do it all trail fork. Smoother, lighter, more tuneable, and more capable than ever before; when it comes to a do-it-all trail fork the 34 is in a class of its own.All-New chassisNew air / oil channelsNew arch shape offers improved head tube clearance with shorter rakesNew 58mm diameter crownUpdated EVOL air springSpecification:Wheel Size: 29"Colours: Shiny Black / Shiny OrangeTravel: 130mm / 140mmOffset: 44mm / 51mmDamper: GRIP2Axle to Crown: 554mm (140mm Travel)Max Tyre Size: 29 x 2.60"Rotor Size: 180-230mmSteer tube: 1.5 TaperAxle Options: 15 x 110 QR / Kabolt 110Upper tube Finish: KashimaStarting Weight: 1698gLower Leg Bypass Channels - As a fork compresses, the air volume within the lower legs decreases, increasing air pressure. The more the fork compresses, the more pressure increases. This effect can have the unintended consequence of preventing full travel from being achieved. The lower leg channels help alleviate this issue by dramatically increasing air volume within the lower legs and thereby reducing the amount of additional unintended pressure ramping. Another benefit of these channels is that lower leg bath oil is circulated to the upper reaches of the lower legs, continuously lubricating the foam rings and bushings as the fork compresses and extends through its travel.Lower Leg Arch - Stiffness-to-weight is the ultimate metric for bicycle design. Engineers invest countless hours poring over every ounce of material in an effort to optimize this critical ratio. The all-new 34 pulls out all the stops, shaving every possible gram while making sure not to compromise the stiffness or strength requirements of modern trail riding.Modern frame designs and geometry trends require modern suspension design solutions. The arch design is designed to pair perfectly with modern trail bikes. Head tube profiles have grown larger and larger, and fork offsets shorter and shorter. Fox s new arch shape takes this need into account by jutting forward to provide ample headtube clearance at full compression. State-of-the-art computer modelling techniques helped us to create an organic lower leg shape that optimizes stiffness with the absolute minimal amount of material.GRIP2 Damper The GRIP2 damper is the benchmark for unparalleled ride quality and ultra-precise adjustability. GRIP2 includes Fox s patented Variable Valve Control (VVC) technology which allows for external fine-tuning of suspension performance. GRIP2 achieves with the twist of a knob what typically requires the time consuming and complicated task of completely disassembling and reassembling the fork.Float EVOL - Returning with the same legendary suppleness and longevity, the EVOL air spring in 34 s now has an enlarged negative air spring to assist with mid-stroke support.

The all-new Fox 36. The new Enduro fork standard is anything but standard. With all new design inside-and-out, plus an unmatched combination of ride quality, tunability, stiffness, weight, and alignment - we took the award-winning, EWS favourite and made it even better.New Crown - Lighter by 20 grams, while increasing steerer-tube overlap at the CSU, the new crown design improves durability while our engineering maintains stiffness and drops weight.Axle - Kabolt, a lightweight bolt-on floating axle to shave grams and increase torsional stiffness via a sleeveless, single-sided pinch bolt design.Lower Leg Bypass Channels - Increasing air volume within the lower legs reduces the amount of additional unintended pressure ramping. Lower leg bath oil also circulates to the upper reaches of the legs, continuously lubricating the foam rings and bushings as the fork compresses and extends through its travel.Lower Leg Bleeders - Allows for atmospheric pressure equalization for better fork performance, allowing full travel to be achieved and increasing small bump sensitivity and responsiveness.Lower Leg Arch - Our new lower leg design pulls out all the stops, shaving every possible gram while making sure not to compromise stiffness or strength requirements of modern Enduro and gravity-style riding.GRIP2 - Unparalleled ride quality and ultra-precise adjustability. Allows for external fine-tuning of suspension performance thanks to our patented Variable Valve Control (VVC) technology.Float EVOL - Optimizes small bump sensitivity by increasing negative air spring volume. Its linear spring curve delivers plushness off the top, extra mid-stroke support, and more tuneable bottom-out progression.Specification:Damper: GRIP2 w/ dual VVC (Variable Valve Control)Travel: 160mmOffset: 44mmWheel Size: 27.5" & 29"Axle: 15QR x 110mm BoostSteerer: 1.5 TaperedColour: Matte BlackUpper leg finish: Black Anodised
