FOX Racing Shox

34 SL Float 29in Factory Grip SL Fork

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"This fork strikes the perfect balance between weight and control. On my 120mm XC build, the GRIP SL damper gives me the support I need for tech climbs, while the lightweight chassis makes every pedal stroke count. A must-have for serious racers."

FOX’s 34 FLOAT SL 29in Fork was born from the demands of modern XC courses and riders chasing the edge of performance. Weighing in under 1600 grams, it’s one of the lightest 34mm chassis forks on the market—yet it delivers the stiffness and support needed to maintain control through high-speed descents and rough terrain. Whether you’re lining up for your local series or tackling marathon days, the FLOAT SL provides razor-sharp handling and trail-tuned responsiveness.

At its heart is FOX’s FLOAT SL air spring, optimized for lightweight efficiency without compromising traction or small-bump compliance. The GRIP SL damper offers multiple tuning configurations, including a simple 3-position compression adjust or a Push-to-Lock remote option depending on model. And with travel options at 120mm and 130mm, it adapts seamlessly to both aggressive XC builds and light trail setups.

From Kashima-coated stanchions to the Kabolt SL axle system, every element is designed to minimize weight and maximize race-readiness. This fork is the answer for riders who want class-leading control in a category-defining XC package.
