Fox 38 K FLOAT 29" Factory 170 Grip2 Tapered Boost fork

The Fox 38 K Float 29" Factory Boost with Kashima Coat, improved GRIP2 cartridge, is a lightweight suspension fork with 170mm travel - designed for Enduro riders.

High rigidity, innovative and light: the new 38 K Float 29" Factory 170 Grip2 Tapered Boost by Fox Racing

All the revolutionary features of the new 36 are packed into a super-strong frame, specially designed for modern, tough Enduro racing with long suspension travel: The new 38 is on the starting line! Whatever gets in his way, he will never tire of panting for even more speed.

The award-winning 38 gets a huge performance boost thanks to the improved 4-way adjustable FIT GRIP2 damper. Featuring dual patent-pending Variable Valve Control (VVC) high- and low-speed rebound adjusters, improved compression damping and overall lower friction, the 38 offers a new level of performance and adjustability at the height of the X2 shock absorbers. The high-speed compression phase and high-speed rebound phase are now easily adjustable with 8 clicks. “Factory” says it all. The best technology we have to offer is available in the Factory Series models with our original Kashima coating, which is buttery smooth and ultra durable. These products are World Cup proven. External steps at the bottom of the jet reduce weight.

The new 38 features a new, patent-pending, quick-release lever floating pin system that combines the benefits of a floating pin with the ease of a tool-free quick release. With this system, the spacing is locked by a floating sleeve, allowing the front wheel to be repeatedly removed and reinstalled while maintaining perfect fork alignment. The floating sleeve placement is preset at the factory, so if you're not sure how to use the floating axle system or just don't want to deal with it, you can simply install the front wheel and continue your ride.

Modern frames and geometric trends require modern suspension design solutions. The arched design of the all-new 38 has been designed to perfectly match modern Enduro and Downhill bikes. Head tube profiles have become larger and larger and fork offsets shorter and shorter. The new arch shape takes this into account, protruding forward to provide ample head tube clearance at maximum compression.
