Stay composed when conditions turn aggressive. The 38 maintains unwavering control even at high speeds. Built for 160–180mm of travel and finished with authentic Kashima Coat protection, this fork combines Glidecore air spring technology to minimize friction and binding. The result is a single-crown fork that delivers exceptional confidence, responsive handling, and long-lasting reliability on demanding terrain.
KEY FEATURES
GRIP X2 DAMPER Greater traction and even more control at speed. The most tunable, supportive and smoothest descent-focused damper ever created by FOX.
SAME STIFFNESS. LOWER FRICTION. Generative designed arch and lower legs maintain the 38’s legendary torsional stiffness while increasing the bushing overlap by 20mm for decreased friction and increased sensitivity.
LESS BIND. FULL CONTROL. The seamlessly compliant FLOAT Glidecore air spring reduces friction and bind by moving with the fork under dynamic load. The result? Smoother suspension action.
