For ultimate trail use, the FOX 34 comes with the same superior features as its lightweight sister, the FOX 34 SC. The completely revised casting stands for outstanding stiffness without significant additional weight. Innovations such as the channels integrated into the dip tubes to improve lubrication and the discharge of compressed air in the casting round off the fresh cell treatment. The proven GRIP2 shocks and the improved FLOAT EVOL technology ensure even better responsiveness. Stiff 34 mm anodized stanchions, exclusive SKF seals and the closed cartridge ensure a long service life.
FACTORY LINE
Factory says it all – full functionality, the best materials and developed to meet the high demands of top riders on the world’s trails and race tracks. All products in the Factory series feature the Genuine Kashima Coat for a buttery smooth ride.
34 CHASSIS DESIGN
The distinctive shape of the dip tube design is not just for looks. The 34 mm stanchions and generously overlapping bushings ensure precise transmission of steering impulses.
GRIP2 damping
Fox has packed all its knowledge into this damping. The various adjustment options offer the possibility of optimally adapting it to the various conditions of use.
The high- and low-speed compression and the high- and low-speed rebound can be adjusted separately. Although the setup must be carried out carefully, it offers endless riding pleasure on any surface.
With the integrated Variable Valve Control (VVC) system, the sensitivity of the high-speed rebound and high-speed compression damping is varied via a leaf spring and not by changing the preload. This results in a finely adjustable function and modification.
In addition, attention was paid to the use of low-friction and coated materials throughout the development process. This allows a very fine response and significantly increases comfort.
FLOAT AIR SPRING
The FLOAT air spring system reduces the breakaway torque and thus offers a highly sensitive fork and full comfort even on small bumps. And that for every type of rider and with a wide range of 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.
NEW EVOL AIR SPRING
The enlarged negative air chamber significantly 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.
LOWER LEG CHANNELS
When a fork compresses, the air in the lower areas 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. Another advantage of these channels is that the lubricating oil in the lower part of the dip tubes circulates upwards during the spring process and continuously lubricates the foam rings and the sliding bushings.
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.
