If we are ever in need of a top-tier cross-country race fork, the Fox 32 Float 29in SC Factory GripSL Fork is definitely one of our top choices. Weighing at just over 3 pounds, the redesigned 32 Step Cast fork went on a strict diet plan this season, receiving a milled-out arch, a revised crown, a superlight axle, and an ultralight steerer tube. Even with all the weight savings, Fox still managed to boost the stiffness from the previous model by 40%. The new GripSL damper equips us with either a 3-position (open, medium, and firm) or a handlebar-mounted 2-position remote (open, firm) compression adjustment, and a 17-click rebound adjustment. The new GripSL damper is 65 grams lighter than the fit4 damper.
