The first downhill fork from American suspension specialist FOX Shox was rumored for a long time, but last weekend it celebrated its world and race premiere at the NORBA race in Big Bear. With 40-millimeter stanchions and even fatter dropper posts, the fork makes a big impression and the suspension travel can be adjusted internally between 15 and 20 centimeters. The adjustment options are the usual ones: The compression and rebound stages of the oil damper can be adjusted from the outside using knobs, the steel spring can be preloaded and the racing mechanics are responsible for everything else - a real racer fork, after all.
