evo.com | Fox Shox Forks > The Fox Shox 36 Float Performance Elite GRIP X Fork delivers Enduro-level handling without the weight penalty, packing 20% more torsional stiffness into a chassis that's lighter and smoother than ever. Its generatively designed arch and compliant FLOAT air spring transform how you'll attack technical terrain, decoupling suspension forces to keep your line razor-sharp whether you're threading alpine singletrack or demolishing high-speed chunk. It's all powered by the proven GRIP damper, with 3 position open / medium / firm modes for set and forget functionality. Redesigned Air Spring A large enough bending force-such as hitting a large rock or root at high speed-can cause the air spring to bind to the inside of the stanchion when the fork is compressing through its travel. The redesigned and compliant FLOAT air spring decouples the stanchion from the air shaft, allowing the piston to move with the fork while under these bending loads, rather than resisting them. The result? Smoother suspension action overall, especially when the fork is experiencing high loads from speed or weight of a rider. Redesigned Arch & Crown Generatively designed and optimized by FOX engineers, the new 36 arch wraps around the lowers to increase torsional stiffness of the fork by a full 20%. This now gives the 36 a veritable 87% of the torsional stiffness found on the 38 (up from 75%), while remaining 275g lighter than the 38. Inboard Bypass Channels Bypass channels help curb pressure ramping for increased small bump sensitivity, as well as recirculating bath oil to lubricate bushings and seals. By relocating the bypass channels from the aft side of the fork to the inboard side, they are now out of the fore-aft load path to further reduce dynamic friction throughout the fork's travel. GRIP Damper Inspired from moto, the GRIP damper uses Fox's FIT sealed cartridge technology combined with a coil-sprung, independent floating piston. GRIP allows excess oil to purge through specially designed ports at the top of the damper to maintain consistent damping and increase durability. It features three on-the-fly compression damping positions. Low Profile Bleeders Grooved design allows pressure to escape around your finger as you press the bleeder. | Fox Shox 36 Float Performance GRIP Fork 29 2026 - 160mm, 15x110 QR, 44mm Rake, 3-Pos in Black Size 160mm 15X110 Qr 44mm Rake 3-Pos
