Fox Rhythm Damper Assembly

No, this specific damper is designed exclusively for the Fox Rhythm 38 fork series. It will not fit Performance, Performance Elite, or Factory series 38 forks, so please verify your fork model before purchasing.

Yes, you will need standard suspension service tools, including a cassette tool or specific Fox damper tool to remove the top cap, as well as a torque wrench to ensure the assembly is tightened to manufacturer specifications.

While this damper is tuned specifically for the added weight and demands of e-bikes, it will physically fit and function in a standard Rhythm 38 fork. However, the damping characteristics are optimized for heavier chassis, so you may find the ride feel firmer than a standard non-e-bike damper.

This is a complete damper cartridge assembly, but it does not include the fork oil or the external dust wipers and seals required for a full lower-leg service. You will need to purchase the appropriate suspension fluid and seal kit separately.

This is a genuine factory replacement, meaning it is a drop-in unit designed to restore your fork to its original performance. No internal tuning or modification is required; simply install it according to the Fox service manual for your specific fork.
