Fox Shox 36 Float Factory Kashima Fork
Description
The Fox Shox 36 Float Factory Kashima fork offers the best-of-the-best technology Fox has to offer. With all the hallmarks of a fork that has dominated world championship races, the Fox 36 is the fork of choice when it comes to world class Enduro and gravity riders.
New for 2019 is the GRIP2 sealed cartridge FIT system, Fox's next-evolution damper. The 2019 range features a smoother compression damping curve, improved small bump sensitivity, 4-way adjustability, VVC high-speed rebound circuit, high-performance mid-valve, and overall friction-reducing treatments, making this Fox's highest performing gravity-focused damper.
If you get bamboozled with your fork settings, then you'll love the Fit 4, 3 Way Adjustability options. Quickly choose between 3 predefined settings - Open, Medium, Firm for on the fly adjustments. But don't worry, there are still further options to dial in the compression on the open setting and adjust the rebound, for fine-tuning.
The 2019 version comes with its signature buttery smooth feel with low friction seals and the distinctive gold Kashima coating for ultimate durability. The Fox 36 still features all the stiffness as before with its burly 36mm stanchions able to soak up the worlds roughest trails, making it ideal for all gravity and enduro riders.
The Fox Shox 36 Float Factory Kashima offers a new level of performance and adjustability for 2019 and pairs up perfectly with the Fox X2 shocks.
Also new for 2019 is longer travel versions in both 27.5 and 29. 27.5 is available in 180mm and 29 is available in 170mm.

WOW!
by Anthony R. -
Super supportive and very plush. I've taken the pressure down so much lower than previous forks as you just don't need it. They don't bounce much as all when climbing and they can handle any downhill that you want.
Best enduro fork on the market

Epic fork, easy install, the suspension take a few rides to tweak but once dialed it's amazing.
The perfect Fork
by Eric S. -
Had the Fox 34 CTD and replaced with these, took a little to get the HSC/LSC dialled in but is absolutely working great, easy to climb. Holding out great when boosting off large jumps and landing flat

Amazing experience as usual with MTB Direct, perfect customer service and quick delivery. These forks have transformed my Norco sight, into the All mountain beast it's meant to be. With lockout settings to match Factory inline float. I love my bike all over again.

The Fox 36 is an amazing fork!! This package included the 15mm/20mm axle conversion parts, both axles and volume spacers for the air spring. The HSC/LSC dials give you all the control you could need to dialling the fork in for a perfect ride. If you don't like fiddling with these controls, it might not be the easiest fork to setup and you may be better off with the Fit4 setup. Just choose accordingly. Otherwise, full points and well earned, the control offered by this fork on the trail is worth every cent you spend on it.
