Fox Racing Shox 38 Float Factory Grip X2 Tapered Boost 29" Fork

£983.99

The 38 sets the benchmark for single crown confidence, performance and durability.Five years on, the latest 38 raises the bar once again - delivering next-level control, sensitivity, and confidence for Enduro and aggressive All-Mountain riding. Drawing directly from the design philosophy behind the FOX Podium fork, this new generation brings a refined ride feel that’s smoother, faster, and more composed in the toughest terrain.The MY27 38 has been reengineered with a precise balance of stiffness: 8.8% stiffer fore-aft for improved tracking and control, while 6.8% less torsionally stiff to enhance compliance and grip. The result is a fork that stays planted when charging hard, yet adapts to the trail for a less fatiguing ride.A key upgrade comes in the expanded bushing overlap, increased from 120mm to 140mm. This improvement, combined with newly generative-designed lower legs, reduces friction and boosts small-bump sensitivity - keeping the ride smooth even at high speeds and under heavy impacts.Advanced Suspension TechnologyUpdated GRIP X2 and GRIP X damper options for precise tuning and controlNew Glidecore air spring system with vertical and horizontal complianceMCU bottom-out bumper for improved impact absorptionUpdated bleeders and relocated bypass channels for consistent performanceCompatibility & IntegrationCompatible with the same mudguard as the 36 and 36 SLBuilt for aggressive Enduro and All-Mountain applicationsKey FeaturesIncreased fore-aft stiffness (+8.8%) for improved controlReduced torsional stiffness (-6.8%) for enhanced compliance and tractionExpanded bushing overlap (140mm) for smoother performance under loadGenerative-designed lower legs for reduced friction and increased sensitivityInspired by FOX Podium fork ride characteristics
