Fox Suspension 36 SL Fork

This fork is designed for aggressive trail riding. It balances the weight savings needed for long climbs with the chassis stiffness required for technical descents and demanding terrain.

The GRIP X damper allows you to independently adjust high-speed and low-speed compression, as well as rebound. This gives you precise control over how the fork reacts to both small trail chatter and larger, high-impact hits.

Lower leg bleeders allow you to equalize the air pressure inside the fork lowers with the outside atmosphere. This is particularly useful if you ride in areas with significant elevation changes, as it prevents pressure buildup that can make the fork feel harsh or sticky.

The 36 SL is designed for 29-inch wheels with a 15x110mm boost axle spacing. It accommodates tires up to 2.6 inches wide, which covers the vast majority of modern trail bike setups.

The fork comes with a standard post mount for a 180mm rotor. You can run up to a 203mm rotor if you need additional stopping power for steep or sustained descents.

The FLOAT EVOL air spring increases the negative air volume, which creates a more supple feel at the beginning of the stroke. This helps the fork track better over small bumps while maintaining support deeper in the travel.
