Why We Like The Fox 38 Float 29in Factory Grip X2 Fork

Whether we are sending drops in the foothills or racing for the podium, the Fox 38 is a popular choice amongst the Herd. With Fox´s Factory series build and stout 38mm stanchions, the Fox 38 Float 29in Factory Grip X2 Fork provides uncompromising grip and traction on the rowdiest lines. This year, the Grip X2 damper replaces the old Grip 2 damper, sporting all of the same adjustments for maximum tuning capability, but now with an upgraded base valve with a larger diameter and higher valve count for better sensitivity and tuning range. All of the last models´ improvements stay the same, including the floating axle for a smoother ride, the revised crown and arch for stiffness and weight savings, and the bleeders for balanced positive and negative air chambers. The Fox 38 Float 29in Factory Grip X2 Fork is a top choice among high-level enduro riders and racers who want the best descent-oriented performance.
