FOX Racing Shox 40 Float Factory 29in Grip X2 Fork Shiny Black, 20TAx110mm, 203mm, 52mm Rake

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""The 40 has always been the benchmark for downhill forks, and this version raises the bar. The GRIP X2 damper gives you a level of adjustability that lets you fine-tune feel for everything from hero dirt to chewed-up race tracks, and the GlideCore air spring makes the small-bump sensitivity noticeably better than previous generations. If you're building a serious DH rig, there's nothing else to consider.""The start gate doesn't care how prepared you feel—only how prepared your equipment is. The FOX Racing Shox 40 Float Factory 29in Grip X2 Fork is what riders at the highest level of downhill racing have trusted for years when the course is steep, the rocks are sharp, and a mechanical is not an option. Updated for 29in wheels and loaded with FOX's latest damper and air spring technology, this is the fork that defines what a downhill fork is supposed to be. The revised GRIP X2 damper brings four-way adjustability—high and low speed compression and rebound—giving riders precise control over how the fork behaves through every feature on the mountain. Paired with the FLOAT EVOL GlideCore air spring, small-bump sensitivity is improved without sacrificing the mid-stroke support needed to stay composed through the biggest hits. Kashima-coated upper tubes reduce friction for a smoother, more consistent feel lap after lap, while the floating axle and 20TAx110 standard ensure rock-solid wheel tracking under load. With 203mm of travel and rotor compatibility up to 230mm, the 40 Float Factory is built for the most demanding terrain on the planet."
