FOX suspension fork 2025 29" Float 34 F-S 140 GRIP X Factory Boost Limited Edition Podium Gold Kabolt 15x110 mm tapered 44 mm offset
Golden times.
FOX is not only giving its suspension forks new damping cartridges for the company's 50th anniversary, but also a limited edition color. Podium Gold makes a statement and shines in combination with the Kashima coating. Each model comes with a numbered certificate of authenticity signed by Bob Fox, as well as a matching golden sticker sheet for the current FOX shocks.
You want it more discreet? No problem, classic black or the typical FOX orange are of course still available. The new cartridge portfolio ranges from the GRIP X2 (focus on maximum downhill performance), to the GRIP X (focus on uncompromising trail performance), to the GRIP SL cartridge (focus on light cross-country performance). What remains is the tried-and-tested casting in conjunction with the bolt-on Kabolt thru-axle. Another highlight are the channels integrated into the dip tubes to improve lubrication and drain the compressed air in the casting. The proven FLOAT EVOL technology ensures perfect responsiveness. Stiff 34 mm stanchions, exclusive SKF seals and the closed cartridge ensure a long service life. So nothing stands in the way of riding fun on the trail.
GRIP X damping
This cartridge replaces the classic FIT4 and is the perfect companion for trail and all-mountain use. The aim was to minimize weight and simplify the settings. It offers a finer response, is higher in the suspension travel and offers the option of closing the high-speed compression stage (HSC) completely, thus bringing a lockout into play for the uphills. A low-speed compression adjustment (LSC) is also on board, as is a low-speed rebound (LSR). An internal floating piston (IFP) to absorb the displaced oil is now also included in this cartridge. The result is a wider range of use and a stronger focus on downhill performance.
EVOL
The enlarged negative air chamber improves the response of the fork. This increases comfort because the breakaway torque has been reduced. In addition, a more linear spring characteristic curve offers better performance, especially in the middle spring travel ranges.
FLOAT AIR SPRING
The FLOAT air spring system reduces the breakaway torque and thus offers a highly sensitive fork and full comfort even with small bumps, for every type of rider and at different air pressures. Similar to the FLOAT suspension struts, the FLOAT suspension system is characterized by a positive and a negative air chamber, which automatically balance each other out when riding. Every rider thus enjoys the benefits of the correct, precisely balanced air pressure in both air chambers. The progression of the spring characteristic can be adjusted with our air volume spacers - allowing every rider to precisely set the characteristics of the air spring.
LOWER LEG CHANNELS
When a fork compresses, the air in the lower sections of the lower leg channels is compressed at the same time. The further the fork compresses, the more the pressure increases. This effect means that the fork responds harder and may not be able to use the full suspension travel.
The overflow channels help to solve this problem by directing the compressed air from the lower part of the fork tubes upwards, thus reducing the unintended increase in pressure. A further advantage of these channels is that the lubricating oil in the lower section of the dip tubes circulates upwards during the spring process and continuously lubricates the foam rings and the sliding bushes.
AIR VOLUME SPACERS
The FLOAT air spring on FOX forks and shocks can be fine-tuned using volume spacers to make the suspension elements more progressive or less progressive. This allows the rider to fine-tune the suspension exactly to their needs.
KASHIMA COAT
The Genuine Kashima Coat coating for a buttery smooth ride is exclusively available only from FOX, the Kashima Coat logo is applied to both stanchions. The distinctive golden Genuine Kashima Coat coating offers outstanding overall performance and ensures minimum friction and optimum responsiveness with maximum durability.
