Technologies
Kashima Coat
Buttery-smooth, Genuine Kashima Coat is available only from FOX Racing Shox. Its distinctive gold color is backed by its high performance attributes—properties that provide an exceptionally smooth feel and extreme durability.
FIT (FOX Isolated Technology)
Air and oil do mix, and in the world of suspension, it degrades performance. Our isolation technology employs a bladder system that simply keeps the oil and air from mixing to provide optimal performance in all riding extremes.
15QR
Don't sacrifice performance by going with a pinner skewer. We teamed up with Shimano to create an axle that is extremely light and stiff, in a tool-free design. You'll gain a ton of confidence when you're deep in the rocks, roots, and ruts.
I bought this fork from Ebay at very reasonable price. Within a couple of days, I will install it to my new Santa Cruz Nickel with Easton EA90 XC front wheel. I will post the pictures after having installed. The reason I didn't go for Fox Talas is that with 120mm travel I can pretty much cruise most of local trails, and this Fox Float cuts a big chunk of Mass about 0.4 lbs from the total bike weight. Also, I gotta do change my rear wheel. I might go for a classic Chris King rear hub with Mavic 819 rim soon.
