40 Float 27.5in Factory Grip X2 Fork

Whether we are racing or just hitting the bike park, the Fox 40 is one of the most sought-after forks in downhill riding. The Fox 40 Float 27.5in Factory Grip X2 Fork is one of our favorites for everything from big airs to chunky and fast descents. Beefed-up 40mm stanchions, a dual crown, and a 20mm axle all mean downhill strength and stiffness for sending jumps, drops, and berms as fast as possible. This year, the Grip X2 damper replaces the old Grip 2 damper, sporting all of the same adjustments for maximum tuning capability, but now with a larger diameter base valve and a higher count valve stack for better sensitivity and tuning range. Various features returning from the last model year include the floating axle for a smoother ride, the revised arch for stiffness and weight savings, and the bleeders for balanced positive and negative air chambers. The 40 Float 27.5in Factory Grip X2 Fork is a top choice among downhill riders and racers who want the best downhill performance.
