Fox 38 Float Performance Grip 29" Boost tapered rake 44 mm
Trailblazer in action
Designed for trail riding, the Performance Series 38 features a Grip damper, Float EVol air spring, and lightweight chassis. Thanks to its innovative construction, the 38 provides proven trail performance that instills confidence and control.
Performance forks retain the same black anodized 7000 series aluminum upper tubes as Performance Elite, but have a different damper with fewer adjustments. A Performance Series graphics package is found on these forks to continue the black-on-black look.
Features
- Travel: 170 mm.
- Float EVol air spring.
- Fit Grip 3-pos damper version.
- 15QRx110 axle.
- Finish: black anodized.
- 1,5 T steerer.
Technologies
EVol (Extra Volume)
Patented Air Transfer Port System. An EVol linear spring curve gives forks and shocks plushness off the top, extra mid-stroke support, and more tunable bottom-out progression, allowing riders to tap into the ideal pairing of front and rear-end feel.
Float EVol Air Spring
EVol technology from rear shocks is integrated into all Fox forks. EVol increases negative air spring volume, specifically positioned and sized for optimum small bump sensitivity.
Grip
Inspired from moto, the Grip damper uses Fox's Fit sealed cartridge technology combined with a coil-sprung, independent Floating piston. Grip allows excess oil to purge through specially designed ports at the top of the damper to maintain consistent damping and increase durability. Performance Series forks provide Open, Medium, and Firm modes with additional micro-adjust between settings.
Lower leg channels
As a fork compresses, the air volume within the lower legs decreases, increasing air pressure. The more the fork compresses, the more pressure increases. This effect can have the unintended consequence of preventing full travel from being achieved. The lower leg channels help alleviate this issue by dramatically increasing air volume within the lower legs and thereby reducing the amount of additional unintended pressure ramping.
Lower leg arch
Stiffness-to-weight is the ultimate metric for bicycle design. Engineers invest countless hours poring over every ounce of material in an effort to optimize this critical ratio. Fox all-new lower leg design pulls out all the stops, shaving every possible gram while making sure not to compromise stiffness or strength requirements of modern enduro and gravity style riding.
Bleeders
Lower leg bleeders allow for atmospheric pressure equalization at the simple press of a button. Pressure build-up in the lower legs dramatically decreases fork performance, preventing full travel from being achieved, and diminishing small bump sensitivity and responsiveness.
Included
- 3 air spring volume spacers.
- Nut.
