The rowdiest, steepest trails are reserved for hard-charging brawlers like the Fox 38. Featuring Fox's Factory series build and stout 38mm stanchions, the Fox 38 Float 27. 5in Factory Grip X2 Fork provides unrelenting traction for high-level enduro riders and racers. The Grip X2 damper replaces the old Grip 2 damper this year but gives us all the same compression and rebound adjustments for maximum tunability. The change is in the internals of the Grip X2 damper, which houses a wider 24mm base valve that allows us to run lower pressures for increased sensitivity and more than triple the number of valves for enhanced tuning capability. The 38 is finished with welcome features like Fox's floating Kabolt X axle for a smoother ride and last year's revised crown and arch for a lightweight build.
